[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who does operate this, a patient? A first responder? A nurse? ..[/quote] National guard. [/quote] Ok crazy question I know but could these be used at home?[/quote] Are you talking about the ambu bag that the PP seemed to be responding to? I'm the parent of a kid who uses a vent at home. My kid is far more stable than an ARDS patient in the ICU. We have an ambu bag (with a trach attachment, so not exactly like the one pictured) for a true emergency, but it's not a long term solution, and by long term I mean longer than it would take for an ambulance to get here if the vent failed. It's nowhere near as precise as a vent. In the hospital, it's a thing you use for a few breaths while you're doing CPR, or when you need a few minutes to get a vent set up. It's not a long term thing. If you're asking whether you could just use this instead of taking your loved one with COVID to the ER, then no. [/quote]
