An ambu bag and a silicone resuscitator are similar devices used for manual ventilation during CPR. The ambu bag is a specific brand of resuscitator that may be made of silicone or other materials. Silicone resuscitators are generally more durable and easier to clean compared to other types of resuscitators.
