Description
The Mercury Medical® CPR-2™ Child Manual Resuscitator (1056116) is a high-performance, self-inflating bag-valve-mask (BVM) system specifically designed for pediatric ventilation. This advanced configuration includes an integrated, color-coded manometer for real-time airway pressure monitoring and an adjustable PEEP valve to help maintain positive end-expiratory pressure and optimize alveolar recruitment.
Manufactured from latex-free thermoplastic material, the CPR-2™ resuscitator delivers rapid bag re-expansion and excellent tactile feedback. A built-in Pop-Off pressure relief valve preset at 40 cm H₂O protects pediatric patients from excessive airway pressure and barotrauma. The system also includes an aerosol tubing port, enabling inline medication delivery during resuscitation.
