A self-inflating, manual and reusable bag-mask intended for newborns and infants who require respiratory support. The ergonomic orientation of the bag-mask, and the new and improved Newborn Mask, are designed to make it easier to obtain mask seal and provide effective ventilations compared to the standard horizontal products available.
By introducing positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), Upright with PEEP Newborn Bag-Mask can help prevent repeated lung alveolar collapse during ventilation, helping recruit lung volume more efficiently, clear fluid from the lungs and reduce damage to the lung tissue. PEEP is the current standard of care in high-resource settings and is recommended by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) for premature newborns.
