RESUMO
To solve the problems of insufficient airway opening, insufficient or excessive ventilation, ventilation interruption, and the rescuer's physical strength during the process of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) outside the hospital and in the hospital, and to ensure the accuracy of ventilation frequency rate and tidal volume. Zhongnan Hospital and School of Nursing, Wuhan University, jointly designed and developed a smart emergency respirator with open airway function, that has been granted National Utility Model Patent of China (ZL 2021 2 1557989.8). The device is structured of pillow, pneumatic booster pump and mask. It can be used simply by plugging the pillow under the patient's head and shoulder, turning on the power supply and wearing the mask. The smart emergency respirator can quickly and effectively open the patient's airway and give accurate ventilation with adjustable ventilation parameters. The default settings are 10 times/min in respiratory rate and 500 mL in tidal volume. The whole operation does not require the operator have professional operation ability, which can be independently applied used in any cases without oxygen source or power supply, therefore, the application scenario has no limit. The device has the advantages of small size, simple operation and low production cost, which can reduce human source, save physical strength and significantly improve the quality of CPR. The device is suitable for respiratory support in multiple scenes outside and inside the hospital, and can significantly improve the success rate of treatment.
