Auto BVM

An Auto BVM (Automatic Bag Valve Mask) is an emergency respiratory support device designed to automate the manual process of ventilating a patient using a bag-valve-mask system.

Commonly used in critical care settings such as ICUs, ambulances, and during ventilator shortages, the Auto BVM ensures consistent and controlled delivery of air or oxygen to patients who are unable to breathe adequately on their own.

Unlike manual BVMs that require continuous operation by medical staff, Auto BVMs operate automatically, helping reduce human error and caregiver fatigue, especially during prolonged resuscitation efforts.

These devices have proven especially valuable in resource-constrained environments or during pandemics where the demand for ventilators exceeds supply.
