Introduction - Ambu Man I Mode D'emploi

1. Introduction

The Ambu® AmbuMan is an advanced instruction and training manikin for the simulation
of realistic conditions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation by means of rescue breathing
and chest compression moreover the AmbuMan will cover all aspect of basic life-support
training.
The manikin incorporates a unique, patented hygienic system under which all trainees get
their own face piece and head bag, thereby minimizing any risk of cross-infection
between the trainees. The hygienic system also features realistic expiration from the
manikin through the mouth and nose.
With the special hygienic system, disassembly and internal cleaning and disinfection are
rendered unnecessary both during and after training. The manikin has the size of a normal
adult and provides an exceptionally lifelike representation of the human anatomy,
particularly of those features important to training in modern resuscitation techniques.
The built-in instrumentation shows the effectiveness of the resuscitation, including results
achieved for insufflation volume and depth of external chest compression, and indicates
any stomach inflation and incorrect hand positioning as well.

The AmbuMan is available in the following configurations:
Version I:
The AmbuMan I (Instrument) models are equipped with an mechanical monitoring
instrument showing effectiveness of the resuscitation, including results achieved for
depth of external chest compression, incorrect hand positioning, ventilation volume
furthermore indications of stomach inflation.
Version W:
The AmbuMan W (Wireless) models are equipped with a mechanical monitoring
instrument as well as digital sensors showing effectiveness of the resuscitation, including
results achieved for depth of external chest compression, incorrect hand positioning,
ventilation volume furthermore indications of stomach inflation.
