Bag-Mask Ventilation

Ventilation with a face mask and self-expanding bag is one of the basic ways to provide ventilation for patients who cannot breathe spontaneously. A self-expanding bag is part of every resuscitation cart in the hospital.

The face mask can be held with one hand - EC-clamp technique, or with two hands, where two methods can be used: C-E technique, or V-E technique. The V-E technique has a higher probability of successful ventilation and less hand fatigue.

One hand ventilation technique: CE-clamp.

Two handed C-E technique.

Two handed V-E technique.
