Frequently asked questions
Does the resuscitator valve deliver 100% oxygen?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve is specifically engineered to deliver 100% oxygen for emergency medical situations. The valve operates efficiently in both demand mode (patient-triggered) and constant flow resuscitation mode.
Key details:
- Compliance: Fully compliant with American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines for emergency oxygen administration.
- Compatibility: Designed for use with standard patient interfaces, including a mask, tracheotomy tube, or endotracheal tube.
- Requirement: The device requires a pressure-regulated oxygen source providing 40 to 60 psig (275 to 413 kPa) to function correctly.
What are the available flow rate configurations?
The Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve is designed to provide 100% oxygen and is available in configurations optimized for either 40 lpm or 160 lpm maximum flow rates. All configurations adhere to AHA guidelines and require a regulated oxygen supply pressure between 40 to 60 psig.
This device supports two modes of delivery:
- Resuscitation Mode: Provides a constant, high flow rate for manual intervention.
- Demand Mode: Allows patient-triggered oxygen flow (activated by spontaneous breaths).
The specific flow rates based on configuration are detailed below:
| Configuration | Required Supply Pressure | Resuscitation Mode (Constant Flow) | Demand Mode (Patient-Triggered) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 40 lpm | 50 psig | 40 lpm | 0 to 40 lpm |
| 160 lpm | 40 psig | 160 lpm | 0 to 160 lpm |
Is the valve compatible with various patient interfaces?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve is engineered for versatile emergency use and is compatible with a range of standard respiratory interfaces, ensuring flexibility during critical life support scenarios. It can be paired with the following:
- Standard Mask
- Tracheotomy Tube
- Endotracheal Tube
What supply pressure is needed for the valve?
The Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve requires a regulated oxygen supply pressure between 40 to 60 psig (275 to 413 kPa). This pressure range is critical for the valve to function correctly and deliver the specified high flow rates (up to 160 lpm, depending on the configuration).
Is the valve AHA compliant?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve is fully compliant with American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines for emergency oxygen administration.
This compliance ensures the device is suitable for critical care scenarios like treating cardiac events or smoke inhalation. Key performance features include:
- 100% Oxygen Delivery: Supplies pure oxygen as required in emergency settings.
- Dual Operating Modes: Operates in either Demand Mode (patient-triggered breaths, 0 to 160 lpm flow) or Resuscitation Mode (constant flow up to 160 lpm, depending on supply pressure).
- Robust Construction: Features an anodized aluminum body and components designed to resist corrosives and extreme weather, ensuring durability in harsh environments.
- Maintainability: Engineered to allow for the removal of obstructions in-situ (during active resuscitation).
The required regulated oxygen supply pressure for optimal operation is between 40 to 60 psig.
Does this valve help prevent dangerous lung over-inflation?
Yes, the valve is engineered with an integrated delivery pressure regulation system. It is designed to provide 60 ± 5 cm H₂O of pressure, which acts as a safety mechanism to prevent the over-inflation of the patient’s lungs during emergency resuscitation procedures.
Is this valve built with durable materials?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve is engineered with robust, industrial-grade materials specifically chosen for durability and resistance in demanding emergency environments.
Key components are constructed from materials designed to resist corrosives and harsh environments:
- Body: Anodized aluminum
- Cover: Polycarbonate
- Outlet: Polysulfone
- Inlet Fitting: Plated brass
This robust construction ensures reliable operation across a wide temperature range, specifically from -30 °F to 125 °F (-34.4 °C to 51.7 °C). Additionally, the design allows for obstructions to be removed from the valve even while resuscitation procedures are underway, ensuring continuous operation.
What is the controlled oxygen delivery pressure?
The Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve delivers oxygen at a precise and controlled pressure of 60 ± 5 cm H₂O (unless otherwise indicated on the demand valve).
This specific regulation is crucial for patient safety, as it ensures effective resuscitation while actively preventing the potential for lung over-inflation.
Does the valve withstand extreme temperatures?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve is built using durable materials, including anodized aluminum and plated brass, ensuring reliable operation across a wide range of environmental conditions.
The valve maintains functionality within the following temperature specifications:
- Operating Temperature: -30 to 125 °F (-34.4 to 51.7 °C)
- Storage Temperature: -40 to 160 °F (-40 to 71.1 °C)
This robust construction and temperature tolerance ensures the device is suitable for use in demanding emergency settings.
Can the valve be maintained during use?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare Demand / Resuscitator Valve is designed for user-friendly maintenance. Obstructions can be safely removed even during resuscitation procedures, ensuring uninterrupted patient care.
