Apparatus for Resuscitation near MRI Chambers

摘要

An application for a disposable support/resuscitation system includes a pressurized gas inlet connected to a pressure relief device. The pressure relief device has a first pressure relief valve that opens at a setable gas pressure and, optionally, has a second pressure relief valve that opens at a pre-determined maximum gas pressure. Changing the first pressure release valve from a low pressure range to a high pressure range requires activation of a pressure range actuation button. A manometer is connected to the pressure relief valve. A manually operated valve is connected to the manometer, and a patient interface port is connected with the manually operated valve. The manually operated valve selectively controls administration of the pressurized gas to the patient. The manometer, pressure relief device, and manually operated valve are made from non-ferromagnetic materials for proper operation in the vicinity of a Magnetic Resonance Imaging System.
