Frequently asked questions
Is the EMT Resuscitator oxygen-powered?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator is a high-performance, oxygen-powered, manually-triggered breathing device designed for emergency situations. It requires a supply pressure of 50 5 psig and delivers 100% oxygen upon activation.Key operational features that enhance its performance and safety include:* AHA-Compliant Flow Control: The device maintains a precise manually-triggered flow rate of 40 5 liters per minute (lpm), aligning with American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines to help prevent gastric insufflation.* High Demand Capacity: It can achieve a peak demand flow rate of up to 115 lpm for critical ventilation needs.* Integrated Safety: Anti-asphyxiation ports are built in to allow the patient to breathe ambient air if the primary oxygen source fails.* Enhanced Usability: The resuscitator features a 360 swivel oxygen DISS inlet connection, preventing hose twisting and tangling during use.
What types of tubes or masks is the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator compatible with?
This resuscitator is versatile and compatible with a mask, endotracheal tube, or tracheotomy tube, offering flexibility in emergency scenarios.
What are the precise oxygen flow specifications?
The Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator is an oxygen-powered device engineered for precise, high-performance ventilation, consistently delivering 100% oxygen. Its key flow rate specifications ensure both compliance and performance:
- Manually Triggered Flow: The flow is preset at 40
± 5 lpm (liters per minute) at 50 psig supply. This controlled rate complies with AHA guidelines to help mitigate the risk of gastric insufflation. - Peak Demand Flow: The device’s maximum ventilation capability is 115
± 10 lpm (at 50 psig inlet). - Spontaneous Demand Flow: For a spontaneously breathing patient, the device delivers up to 100 lpm (at 0 to -5 cm H2O pressure).
Additionally, a critical safety feature is the anti-asphyxiation entrainment: if the primary oxygen source fails, the patient can draw a minimum of 55 lpm of ambient air.
Does the resuscitator prevent asphyxiation if oxygen fails?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator includes a crucial safety mechanism: anti-asphyxiation ports.
Should the primary oxygen supply fail, these ports automatically open, allowing the patient to draw ambient air for breathing.
Specifically, the device ensures an anti-asphyxiation entrainment rate of 55 lpm minimum at -5 cm H2O pressure.
What is the storage temperature range for the resuscitator?
The Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator is built for durability in extreme environments. It can be safely stored within the range of -40° F to 160° F (-40 C to 71.1 C).
Is the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator easy to clean and maintain?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator is designed for easy cleaning and maintenance as it can be readily disassembled. This ensures hygienic and reliable performance in emergency situations.
What are the high-quality construction materials?
The Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator is built with durable, medical-grade materials engineered for reliable performance in demanding emergency environments. The primary construction materials are:
- Body, Cap, and Button: Liquid crystal polymer
- Outlet: Polysulfone
- Inlet Fitting: Plated brass
This robust construction allows the device to operate effectively across a wide range of temperatures, from -30° F to 125° F (-34.4° C to 51.7° C). Additionally, the plated brass inlet fitting features a 360° swivel connection, which significantly enhances usability by preventing the oxygen hose from twisting or tangling.
Who is the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator best suited for?
The Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator is ideal for emergency medical technicians, first responders, and healthcare professionals who need a reliable method for delivering 100% oxygen.
Does the L576-010 configuration include an oxygen hose?
Yes, the L576-010 configuration of the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator includes a 6’ (1.8 m) oxygen hose.
Are robust safety mechanisms included?
Yes, the Allied Healthcare EMT Resuscitator is engineered with several robust safety features essential for patient protection during emergency use:
- Anti-Asphyxiation Ports: These ports automatically allow the patient to breathe ambient air if the primary oxygen source fails. They provide a minimum entrainment flow of 55 lpm.
- AHA-Compliant Flow Control: The manually-triggered flow rate is precisely maintained at 40 ± 5 lpm. This pre-set flow rate adheres to American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines, helping to prevent the risk of gastric insufflation.
- Dual-Stage Pressure Management: The device includes multiple layers of pressure relief to prevent over-pressurization:
- The primary Pressure Limit is set to 60 ± 5 cm H2O.
- A Secondary Pressure Relief mechanism provides maximum safety, activating between 65 and 80 cm H2O.
