One person can operate the McCulloch Medical™ Aspirator/Resuscitator using a simple push/pull action. Valves at each end do all the work. On the wide end there are two one-way induction valves for aspiration. On the narrow end there is one two-way valve for resuscitation.
Aspiration
-Attach the aspirator mask on the wide end and place over the muzzle.
-One-way induction valves draw air in on the out-stroke.
-A vacuum is created when the unit is pumped to remove mucus or fluids that may be blocking the airway.
-Tilt head back to open airway.
-Four or five pumps will draw the mucus or fluids into the aspirator mask.
-Remove the aspirator mask from the pump and follow resuscitation instructions.
Resuscitation
-Attach the resuscitator mask to the small end of the unit and place over the muzzle.
-The one-way valve will induct air into the unit on the out-stroke and drive it down through the two-way valve into the lungs on the in-stroke.
-The two-way valve then opens and allows oxygen-depleted air to escape to the side and NOT reintroduce oxygen-depleted air.
-Resuscitator should be pumped every 5 to 10 seconds.
-Breathing should be stimulated with as few as 5 to 10 pumps. Check for breathing every few pumps.
-If not breathing after 4 to 5 pumps, turn the lamb over and repeat. This will allow the lung previously closer to the ground and weighed-down by internal organs to inflate more easily.
-Continue while heartbeat remains.
