How do you check the ambu bag?
To check an ambu bag (bag-valve-mask system), first inspect the bag for any signs of damage, such as tears or leaks. Ensure the one-way valve is functioning properly by squeezing the bag and observing that air does not escape through the valve. Check the reservoir bag, if present, for proper inflation when the ambu bag is squeezed. Finally, confirm that all connections are secure and that the mask fits appropriately to ensure effective ventilation.

What are accurate statements about bag valve mask resuscitators?
Bag valve mask (BVM) resuscitators are essential tools in emergency medicine used to provide positive pressure ventilation to patients who are apneic or have inadequate breathing. They consist of a self-expanding bag, a unidirectional valve, and a facial mask. Effective use requires proper technique to ensure a good seal and adequate ventilation, typically needing two rescuers for optimal performance. BVMs are crucial in both pre-hospital and hospital settings for respiratory support until advanced airway management can be established.
