PVC Green Non Rebreather Bag XS Kinked Reservoir Bag For Oxygen

A non-rebreather bag, also known as a non-rebreather mask, is a medical device used for the delivery of high-concentration oxygen to a patient. It is designed to deliver oxygen to the patient while preventing the re-inhalation of exhaled gases.

The non-rebreather bag consists of the following components:

Mask: The mask covers the nose and mouth of the patient, ensuring a secure fit. It is usually made of transparent material and has an adjustable strap to keep it in place.

Reservoir Bag: The reservoir bag is a soft, expandable bag attached to the mask. It is capable of holding a significant volume of oxygen, allowing the patient to draw from the bag during inhalation.

One-Way Valves: The non-rebreather bag has one-way valves built into it. These valves allow the flow of oxygen into the mask during inhalation while preventing the patient from inhaling exhaled air or ambient air.

Oxygen Supply Tubing: The non-rebreather bag is connected to an oxygen source through tubing. The oxygen supply tubing delivers a high flow of oxygen from the source to the reservoir bag.

The non-rebreather bag operates on the principle of delivering oxygen at a higher concentration than ambient air. During inhalation, the patient breathes in pure oxygen from the reservoir bag, while exhaled gases are expelled through the one-way valves and vent holes in the mask. This helps to minimize the risk of re-inhaling exhaled gases.

The non-rebreather bag is commonly used in emergency situations, such as in hospitals, ambulances, or during resuscitation efforts. It provides a high concentration of oxygen to patients who require immediate and significant oxygen supplementation.

1. The star lumen tubing can ensure oxygen flow even if the tube is kinked, different length of the tubing is available.
2. Low-resistance check valve does not contain natural rubber latex, prevents rebreathing and allows exhaled gas to escape.
3. Clear, soft PVC for patient comfort and visual assessment.
4. Adaptor swivels to accommodate patient position
5. Safety vent allows for entrainment of room air.
6. Adjustable nose clip assures comfortable fit.

When is a Non Rebreather Bag used?

If you need oxygen and are able to breathe without assistance, your doctor may prescribe a non-rebreather mask.

For example, your doctor may prescribe one if you’re experiencing or have recently experienced:

• smoke inhalation.
• carbon monoxide poisoning.
• physical trauma.
• cluster headache.
• chronic airway limitation.

If your breathing is considered abnormal, your doctor may recommend supplemental oxygen rather than a non-rebreather mask.

Signs of abnormal breathing include:

• noisy breathing,such as wheezing or moaning.
• breathing that requires the use of additional muscles, such as the neck muscles.
• breathing with pursed lips.
• breathing with flared nostrils.
