Apparatus for Resuscitation near MRI Chambers

摘要

An application for a disposable support/resuscitation system is disclosed includes a pressurized gas inlet and a pressure relief device interfaced to the pressurized gas inlet. 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. A manometer is connected to the pressure relief valve. A manually operated valve is connected/interfaced to the manometer, and a patient interface port is connected/interfaced with the manually operated valve. The manually operated valve selectively controls administration of the pressurized gas to the patient and both the manometer and the manually operated valve are in close proximity 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.
