Resuscitation Module without Autobreath™ Infant Resuscitator
• Patient Outlet (Resuscitation Module only)—Use the
Patient Outlet to provide continuous gas flow to the
patient. Controls are provided for Airway Pressure Relief
(maximum pressure) and Flow Rate (circuit flow
delivering 100% oxygen or blended gas). The adjustable
Airway Pressure Relief control is always operative when
used with the 15 mm tubing provided. Pressure relief is
adjustable and ranges from 0 to 4.9 kPa (0 to 50 cm
H
2
O/mbar). The fixed internal safety relief valve is always
operable and provides redundant maximum pressure relief
at 5.9 kPa (60 cm H
2
O/mbar) ± 20% and allows the patient
to inspire room air in the event of gas supply failure. The
fixed internal safety relief valve provides a maximum
pressure relief at 4.9 kPa (50 cm H
2
O/mbar) ± 20%.
• Airway Pressure—The airway pressure gauge monitors
the airway pressure when externally connected to patient
circuits. (UK and other local variants are connected
internally and may not have this fitting.)
• Blender—The optional blender supplies blended gas only to the Patient Outlet in the Resuscitation
Module. During operation, the resuscitation module alarms if both oxygen or air pressures are low.
• Auxiliary Outlet—The Auxiliary Outlet supplies 100% oxygen through the Auxiliary Flow control to
the auxiliary outlet connector. It is intended for oxygen enrichment of a manual bag resuscitator, for
supplemental delivery to the patient, mother, or a second neonate, such as a twin. The Auxiliary Flow
control adjusts the flow rate from 0 LPM to 15 LPM. An internal pre-set relief valve limits the
auxiliary outlet pressure to 15.7 kPa (160.1 cm H
2
O/mbar). For the UK only: This internal pre-set
relief valve limits the Aux Outlet pressure to 3.9 kPa (40 cm H
2
O/mbar).
NOTE:
The Auxiliary Outlet oxygen percentage is not adjustable. It always supplies 100% oxygen.
