Ventilation
Aria supports manual bag-valve-mask (BVM) ventilation via face mask, airway adjuncts, endotracheal
tube, and tracheostomy tube. Proper ventilation will demonstrate chest rise and fall.

Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) Ventilation
Ventilator Support
Aria supports basic functionality of a ventilator. Low levels or PEEP (5-10) with normal volume (7-10
ml/kg depending on PEEP) can be supported. Reasonable lung compliances and resistances are
supported for the scenarios of PARDS and Pneumonia as well as variable airway resistance for
obstructed airway.
The simulator does not inhale so it will be unable to trigger a ventilator. Reasonable pressure/volume
curves should be visible.
