Posted August 18, 20195 yr How are you all ☺👋hope you are all fine ..allow me to share this point of view with you Scene 1. Very critical baby and receiving ambu bag ventilation not improving ... Befor announcing failure of this step : ..check your equipment ;proper positioning of ambu mask ..ambu bag valves ..your oxygen flow meter is open and on proper oxygen level .. Any one like to share with me examples of equipment check befor announcing failure 😊
August 20, 20195 yr When I was a fellow, I trained at a delivery hospital that used flow-inflating bags and it made this sort of failure very easy to recognize (if there was any defect in flow, the bag would not inflate). Â The downside to this is that without flow you can't give ANY respiratory support (after a critical incident of this kind where the flow inflating bag actually ripped in the middle of a resuscitation, we started stocking an emergency ambulance bag as back-up).

I liked this idea ..thank you .
August 20, 20195 yr Go to www.mproveacademy.com register and look at toolkits lots of checklists and videos you will get in this regard
September 26, 20195 yr Go through the equipment check . I start checking incubator follow the step but their a mal function. Instead of declare a failure have a second look it, they usually can a fresh look. When I worked for transport we simulate equipment check to at night to avoid equipment failure when tired and hungry. Here have a novice go through the new protocol steps , this way you can find bumps and pit falls. Hope it helps.Â
