The AMBU SPUR II is a hand-held, positive-pressure ventilation device designed to aid patients who are not breathing or are experiencing inadequate breathing.
Commonly referred to as a BVM or Ambu bag, this device is an integral component in resuscitation kits, widely utilized by emergency personnel and hospital staff alike.
Essential in critical care settings, it is a primary tool for stabilizing patients in respiratory failure or arrest.
The device functions autonomously by filling with air, with the option to enrich ventilation with additional oxygen.
Key Features:
Self-filling ventilation: Autonomously fills with ambient air for rapid deployment.
Oxygen compatibility: Allows for the optional addition of oxygen (O₂) to enhance patient support.
Manual ventilation: Provides reliable, controlled ventilation during resuscitation, commonly known as "bagging" the patient.
Crash cart essential: A vital part of hospital emergency kits, operating rooms, and ambulances for immediate response in respiratory emergencies.
Indications:
respiratory failure,
respiratory arrest,
anaesthesia induction,
where manual ventilation is required.
It is a preferred method over traditional mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
