A New Zealand supplier of Resuscitation Equipment
Resuscitation Equipment NZ assists in the resuscitation of people who have suffered a sudden cardiac arrest or an unexpected medical emergency. The aim is to save lives. The ANZCOR guidelines provide those involved in resuscitation education and practice with recommendations based on scientific evidence. These guidelines should be followed at all times.
Resuscitation Masks
Resuscitation
Courses NZ carries a wide range of
first aid products to suit your needs. This includes the more practical items
such as first aid kits, emergency response tees and safety footwear, to the
more novelty items such as resuscitation masks and medical oxygen systems.
One of the most
important parts of any first aid kit is the resuscitation mask, so it is
important to have the right one for the job. These masks are available in a
variety of styles, colours and sizes. A variety of materials are used to create
the masks, including neoprene, plastic and velour, with varying thicknesses for
different uses.
The most important
function of a resuscitation mask is to provide a protective barrier from
airborne contaminants such as dirt, dust and germs. In addition, the mask is
also designed to wick away any moisture that may be on the face of the patient,
helping to prevent infections.
There are many types of
resuscitation masks on the market, but some of the most effective have been
designed to meet specific clinical needs and requirements. The best way to
ensure you have the appropriate resuscitation mask for your needs is to check
the specifications and to ask questions of a trained staff member.
Oxygen Resuscitation
Kits
In life threatening
crises, oxygen is a critical ingredient for fast first aid and good heart
stabilization. It helps to improve hypoxia, prevent brain damage and give a
quick boost to overcome shock or other life threatening injuries.
Resuscitation Equipment
NZ has a wide range of resuscitation kits and oxygen resuscitation supplies to
support both medical professionals and patients in need during emergency
situations. Having an appropriate oxygen and resuscitation kit on hand can be
the difference between life and death, so ensuring you have it in a place where
it is accessible to those who need it most is essential for the safety of both
you and your patient.
Designed by medical and
maritime experts, MedAire resuscitation and oxygen kits are easy to find and
use, and help you administer assistance accurately. Electronic inventory
management means you never run out of vital items and are alerted of expiration
dates and stock replenishment needs.A high flow oxygen resuscitation kit in a
handy carry bag, ideal for CPR and other oxygen therapy indications. Complete
with oxygen cylinder capacity of 210 liters, oxygen regulator 0-6 lpm fixed
flow, and disposable adult manual resuscitator.
Oxygen resuscitation
kits are an essential part of any health care provider’s kit and are
particularly useful for medical facilities such as aged care centres, dental
centers, and doctors, as well as for lifeguards and surf lifesavers in the
community. They can also be a useful addition to veterinary practices and
sports organisations where someone may need to perform resuscitation or provide
respiratory aid.
These kits are available
in a variety of sizes, from small to large and are suitable for different
situations. The smaller sizes are perfect for transporting in your car, while
the larger ones can be a great addition to a resuscitation room or medical
office.
The LIFE LINE(tm)
resuscitation kit from BOC Healthcare is designed to make a vital contribution
to the treatment of conscious patients prior to the arrival of the emergency
services. It provides up to 15 litres per minute of oxygen, which can help
prevent casualty deterioration and allows them to receive up to half an hour of
treatment before professional assistance is necessary. It is supplied with an
optional wall mount, ideal for display at the emergency point of your premises.
Wall Mount Brackets
While a wall mounted
defibrillator may not be in the cards for your office tower of trinity, there
is no shortage of AEDs gracing the hospital floor. Fortunately, the hospital
has an active AED program in place that is backed by a laudable staff of
medical professionals, many of whom are well versed in the art of AED
management and deployment. Keeping an AED in good condition is a top notch
affair, as is ensuring that the patient has a happy and healthy outcome. The
best way to do this is to make sure your AED is in a location where it can be
easily accessed at the touch of a button and that there are a sufficient number
of trained personnel on hand to provide resuscitation when needed.
Resuscitation Bags
During the initial phase
of CPR, rescuers may use an Ambu-style bag valve mask (BVM) to provide ventilation
on an oxygen-dependent patient. The BVM works by compressing air into the lungs
using positive pressure. However, it’s important to know that bag-mask
ventilation requires skill and expertise.
Performing bag-mask
ventilation should be performed only by trained medical personnel, such as
nurses, EMTs and paramedics. Misuse of a BVM can result in serious
complications, including respiratory arrest or death.
Ambu bags can be used to
manually ventilate a patient with spontaneous respirations, but they should
only be squeezed at low rates and in short intervals. Squeezing the bag too
quickly can cause dynamic hyperinflation, which worsens hemodynamic
instability.
When using an Ambu bag,
use heart rate and chest wall movement to guide your squeezing. For example, if
the heart rate is less than 100 per minute or decreasing, you should squeeze
the bag a little harder; if it’s over 100, then you should gently squeeze the
bag. In most cases, the Ambu bag should be squeezed 10-12 times per minute on
an adult. In addition, you should check to see that the bag seals properly and
the patient’s chest rises with each squeeze.
Manual resuscitators
require an individual to intermittently compress and decompress a handheld bag
that is connected to a face mask. These devices come in two sizes: adult and
pediatric.
Some manual
resuscitators allow the delivery of supplemental oxygen through the patient’s
outlet. This is a common technique for spontaneously breathing patients, but it
is much more difficult to control than with an oxygen-filled self-inflating
bag.
A study of 11
resuscitators shows that, at 90 s, most models achieved an average FDO2
(Fundamental Decline in Oxygenation) of 97 % or greater. This indicates that
they can deliver a physician-prescribed inflation volume reliably within safety
guidelines.
When a rescuer is alone,
they should begin with chest compressions followed by two breaths. Afterward,
when another person arrives, the rescuer should then use a hand-held
resuscitation bag to administer the next breaths.
