6.4. Critical situations and emergencies
6.4.1. Critical situations
The Ambu® Aura40 is not intended for use as a replacement for the endotracheal tube.
However, in cases where tracheal intubation is not suitable or has failed, the Ambu® Aura40
may be used successfully to establish an airway.
6.4.2. Emergencies
The Ambu® Aura40 may be used during cardiopulmonary resuscitation, either as a temporary rescue
airway or as a conduit to intubation. In the resuscitation situation, the patient must be profoundly
unconscious with obtunded airway reflexes. The risk of regurgitation and aspiration must be
balanced against the potential benefit of establishing an airway and providing oxygenation.
6.5. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Ambu® Aura40 has not been tested for use in MRI scanning. It is therefore not recommended for
use with MRI.
7. Manufacturer’s Warranty
The Ambu® Aura40 is warranted against material and manufacturing defects for forty (40) uses or
a period of one (1) year from date of invoice, whichever comes first, provided that it has been used
according to the instruction manual. The completed record card must accompany any Ambu®
Aura40 returned for evaluation of a defect.
Warranty applicable only if purchased from an authorized distributor.
Ambu A/S DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY.
