CAREvent® ALS - User Manual

Note: 

When using the single use patient valve, vomitus may be 

forced past the diaphragm and contaminate the bio- filter. This 

may necessitate the use of a new single use valve.

3.4. Action to be taken if patient 

vomits during resuscitation

Should the patient vomit into the mask during resuscitation the 

following steps should be followed to clear the foreign material:
1.  Remove the mask from the patient’s face and clear any foreign 

material from the patients airway.   Depress the manual button 

or allow the resuscitator to cycle automatically  for a few 

breaths to clear the mask and valve of foreign material.

2.  If depressing the manual button repeatedly or automatically 

cycling the resuscitator does not clear the foreign material 

from the patient valve,either disconnect the resuscitator  from 

the gas supply or turn the selector to the OFF position, remove 

the facemask and unscrew patient valve swivel housing (a) 

from the resuscitator body being careful to ensure that the 

diaphragm (b) is retained (Fig.3).

3.  Shake out any foreign material from the resuscitator, 

diaphragm, face mask and patient valve swivel housing.

4.  Rotate the selector to the appropriate position and either 

operate the manual button to blow out any contaminant or 

cycle automatically for a few breaths.

5.  Re-assemble diaphragm, patient valve and face mask and 

operate the manual button or automatically cycle the 

resuscitator for a few breaths to ensure correct function.

6.  Restart resuscitation as previously indicated.

3.5. Demand Breathing and Automatic Circuit Shut Off

Should the patient commence spotaneous breathing at a flowrate 

of greater than 30 lpm for more than 1 second the CAREvent®  

ALS  will sense the patient’s inspiratory effort and will stop cycling 

automatically allowing the patient  to “Demand Breathe” at  their 

own rate and volume on 100% oxygen (if connected to an oxygen 

supply). If they cease spontaneous breathing the ventilator will 

recommense automatic cycling after a delay of 5 - 8 seconds  

(depending on the depth of the patients previous respiration)  

without intervention by the rescuer.
