The Most Revolutionary Advance in Bag-Valve-Mask Performance in Over 40 Years!

The SMART BAG® has been designed to allow the provision of consistent ventilations while almost completely eliminating the risks associated with conventional BVM ventilation. The unique actuating mechanism hidden inside the neck bushing of the SMART BAG® actually responds to the rescuer and the patient.

By responding to the rescuer’s squeeze and release of the BVM, the SMART BAG® limits the excessive flow of gas into the patient’s airway, significantly reducing the risk of gastric insufflation by effectively lowering the airway pressure generated. In a normally compliant and resistant airway, the airway pressure is limited to below the esophageal sphincter opening pressure of 19 cm H2O.

The response by the SMART BAG® is proportional to the rescuers squeeze. The harder the squeeze, the greater the greater the restriction to flow. This alerts the rescuer to ease up on the squeeze, reducing the effort required, resulting in the airway pressure being kept to the minimum to achieve adequate ventilation. At no time is the flow of gas into the patient compromised by the SMART BAG®, allowing the rescuer to ventilate even the stiffest lung or most restrictive airway.

To assist the rescuer a visual warning of incorrect ventilation technique of the SMART BAG® is provided. If the SMART BAG® is squeezed too hard, the SMART BAG® responds by closing the valve to lower the Flowrate. Should this occur, the “red pressure actuating indicator” moves to the forward position in the neck of the patient valve producing a visual warning of improper technique.

If the patients airway is less compliant or more restrictive (as in patients with COPD or asthma), higher airway pressures will be required to provide adequate ventilation. In responding to this increased pressure required in the patient’s airway, the SMART BAG® decreases the resistance to flow from the BVM, balancing the pressure on either side of the valve. This allows the required pressure to be exerted by the rescuer on the patient’s airway to overcome the resistance / compliancy problem and provide adequate ventilations.

In the USA , the SMART BAG® is sold with a manual override to allow the actuating mechanism to be locked out (part numbers below include an MO extension)

Unbelievable Quality at an Unbelievable Price!

In our continuing efforts to provide superior patient care equipment and to meet the exacting requirements of the healthcare provider, the O-Two Medical Technologies Easy Grip® Bag-Valve-Mask Resuscitators have been designed to meet the challenges of the patient's breathing emergencies. Easy to use, the Easy Grip® Bag-Valve-Mask Resuscitators provide improved resiliency in performance that incorporates immediate lung condition feedback ("feel") directly to the fingertips.

The Easy Grip® design improves grasp even with a wet or slippery bag, and the unequalled rapid recoil time allows for quick response to the patients respiratory needs.

Available in Adult, Child and Infant models, the Easy Grip® Bag-Valve-Mask Resuscitators offer superior performance, by design. The Child and Infant Resuscitators come complete with a pressure relief valve set at 40 cm H2O, that can be overridden by the operator by manually holding the valve in a depressed position or locking it into the off position.

When used to provide supplemental oxygen, the Easy Grip® Bag-Valve-Mask Resuscitators can provide up to 100% oxygen on every squeezed and release of the bag.

Note: An optional pressure relief system is available for the adult Easy Grip® Bag-Valve-Mask Resuscitator at 60 cm H2O.
