Introduction
The MR‐100™ Plus Manual Resuscitator Is designed for use as an adjunct
to artificial respiration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The Resuscitator
can be used to ventilate the apnoeic patient and to augment ventilation
and/or oxygen delivery to the spontaneously breathing patient.
When connected to an oxygen source, the MR‐100
TM
Plus Manual
Resuscitator can also deliver supplemental oxygen with the aid of an oxygen
reservoir The oxygen concentration delivered by the MR‐100
TM
Plus
Manual Resuscitator depends on the oxygen supply flow rate, tidal volume,
ventilation frequency and operator technique.
The Infant and Child models of the MR‐100™ Plus Manual Resuscitator are
fitted with pressure relief valves which vent the delivered breath to the
atmosphere if the pressure exceeds 40±5cmH20. The pressure relief valve
can be overridden by the operator should a higher delivery pressure be
required.
The MR‐100™ Plus Manual Resuscitator is intended for use by qualified
medical and emergency personnel trained in pulmonary ventilation and
advanced cardiac life support techniques. Users should read and understand
the contents of this manual and demonstrate proficiency in the assembly,
disassembly and use of this device prior to use.
Warning And Cautions
WARNING: Do not use the MR‐100"' Plus Manual Resuscitator In toxic
atmospheres.
WARNING: Remove the oxygen reservoir and reservoir valve If
supplemental oxygen Is not being administered. Failure to do so will
affect the refill rate and maximum frequency capabilities.
WARNING: Do not administer supplemental oxygen in the presence of
open flames.
WARNING: Do not use oil, grease or other hydrocarbon based
substances on any part of the MR‐100
TM
Plus Manual Resuscitator.
Supplemental oxygen,
supplied under pressure, can combine with hydrocarbons and cause
explosions.
WARNING: This device is intended for use by qualified medical and
emergency personnel trained in pulmonary ventilation and advanced
cardiac life support techniques.
WARNING: Always test the device in accordance with this manual after
cleaning and disinfection or replacement of parts.
WARNING: Do not use the pressure relief valve over rid mechanism for
the child and infant resuscitator.
CAUTION: Use only replacement parts intended for use on MR‐
100™Plus Manual Resuscitators.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to disassemble the pressure relief valve
assembly. Disassembly will damage the component.
