Reduction of gastric inflation by use of a pressure relief valve connected to an acoustic expiration control device during mouth-to-mask ventilation of a manikin model of an unprotected airway
Abstract:Gastric inflation occurred less frequently and to a lesser extent when the valve was connected, going ahead with a trend towards lower tidal volumes. The protective effect of the safety valve may be of benefit even if it leads to smaller tidal volumes.
