8) Oxygen supply hose 2m length. Reinforced to resist kinking yet supple to allow easy positioning. 7) Clear patient valve body enables easy view to check inside for contamination. 360 swivel connector helps prevent accidental disconnects and makes positioning the resuscitator to the patient easier. 15/22 mm connector allows attachment of standard resuscitation facemasks, ET tubes etc. 6) Calibration labelling shows settings for the slider controlling automatic time cycled resuscitation. 5) Manual trigger for oxygen powered manually controlled resuscitation. Easily accessible while still holding the resuscitation mask with a two handed grip. 4) Pressure relief valve and audible warning (overventilation / obstruction). 3) Slider control to adjust tidal volume and frequency. Positioned to be immediately visible while the microvent® is in use. 2) Selector switch, choose between automatic time cycled resuscitation or oxygen powered manually controlled resuscitation. 1) Powerful reinforced engineering plastic, injection moulded to form the tough microvent® body, lid and pressure relief cap.
