Ambu 492413031 King Mask
Product Information
The Ambu King Masks are designed to direct anesthesia or medical gases into the patient’s upper airway without inserting any equipment into the trachea. These masks are intended for use in both hospital and pre-hospital environments.
It is important to note that the Ambu King Masks should only be used by CPR- trained personnel. The masks are disposable and are not made with natural rubber latex, making them suitable for individuals with latex allergies. Additionally, they are non-sterile, non-conductive, and equipped with a check valve for optimal functionality.
The Ambu King Masks are MR Safe, meaning they are safe to use in magnetic resonance environments.
Product Usage Instructions
- Ensure that you are CPR trained before using the Ambu King Masks.
- Before use, inspect the mask for any visible damage or defects. Do not use a mask that appears to be damaged.
- Place the mask over the patient’s nose and mouth, ensuring a secure fit.
- Connect the mask to the anesthesia or medical gas source using the appropriate connectors.
- Administer anesthesia or medical gases according to the prescribed guidelines and procedures.
- Monitor the patient’s response and adjust the flow of gases if necessary.
- After use, dispose of the mask appropriately as it is intended for single-patient use only.
- Follow your facility’s guidelines for waste disposal and ensure proper handling of the used mask.
Note:
The Ambu King Masks are not intended for use in the trachea. If tracheal
intubation is required, please consult the appropriate equipment and
instructions for that procedure.
