Evaluation of Bag-Valve-Mask Ventilation in Manikin Studies: What Are the Current Limitations?

Figure 1

Operating process of the new analysis algorithm. This figure shows the evaluation of one-minute sliding windows with a shift of three ventilation cycles. The 1st window is considered insufficient as there are only 5 adequate ventilation cycles. The 2nd window is excessive as mean  mL. The 3rd window is excessive as  bpm. Global ventilation performance of the whole test is considered excessive as the majority of sliding windows are excessive. Adequate ventilation cycles.
