2011年12月9日 · You put the PEEP valve on the exhaust port of the BVM. It works just like any other valve, a spring holds the selected pressure against the valve. While the patient exhales they must consciously apply force to their exhalation in order to reach and maintain the pressure required to open the valve and allow air to escape thus creating positive ...

2012年8月6日 · Applying PEEP is a process that is generally guided by ABGs, volumes, etc. The amount of PEEP is just as important as just it's application. Depending on the pathology and amount of PEEP (which will be unmeasured in BVM ventilation) your compliance will decrease.

2010年1月7日 · LTV 1200 is a good example. You can compare it with the LTV 1000 to see the difference. When transporting patients on higher levels of PEEP like 20 cmH2O, the internal PEEP function generates a more reliable setting. It is also a lot quieter.

2011年1月21日 · Currently we use a BVM with 10cm of PEEP on 25lpm O2 sealed over the patient's face. The preferred method is to simply let the patient breathe through the bag to prevent gastric distension. I've used it several and it's worked well, SpO2 levels have increased, ETCO2 numbers have gone down and the patient's coloring has improved.

2016年12月18日 · PEEP valve on a BVM giving you 10 of peep is not going to cause overpressure injury. It is far more likely bad technique (overinflation) would do that which is prevented with training and a pop-off valve.

2011年4月5日 · Generally speaking yes they are the same. CPAP produces PEEP continuously throughout both phases of ventilation. PEEP by itself as set on a ventilator or with a PEEP valve on a BVM, is just what the name implies... end-expiratory and not continuous.

2019年4月15日 · As a matter of reference (and for full disclosure) I work with a BVM designer and manufacturer (plus a crapload of formal education and clinical experience, mind you): Our standard adult BVM has a volume of 1500 mL, single hand stroke volume of 850 mL, two hand stroke volume of 1150 mL;

2019年8月4日 · For a standard 1500 mL adult BVM, the one hand stroke volume is still 850 mL while the two hand effort can reach 1150 mL. You could probably vent using a pediatric bag (600 and 740 mL, respectively), however if you wanted a higher volume for whatever reason, you wouldn't have access to it.

2019年8月21日 · I wanted to ask this question to some of the forums airway heavyweights, @E tank, @Remi, and a couple others whose names escape me right now. Simply put: Does the size of an ETT relative to an adult patients size truly matter? The reasons I ask are A) the last few inductions that I’ve...
