Resuscitator Silicone – Child CP

What Is the Silicone Child CP Resuscitator?

The VM-RSSCSCP is the CP (Carry Pack) version of the Vital Medical silicone paediatric resuscitator, supplied in a carry bag with a set of masks for immediate deployment. Designed for paediatric patients in the 10-30kg weight range, this resuscitator delivers controlled tidal volumes through a 550ml (±200ml) silicone bag with a stroke volume of ≥150ml. The pressure limiting valve (35-50cmH2O) prevents airway barotrauma during manual ventilation of the paediatric chest.

Technical Performance

At the recommended supplementary oxygen flow rate of 15L/min, the child CP resuscitator delivers an FiO2 of ≥85% with a tidal volume of 150ml at 25 BPM, meeting the respiratory requirements of a paediatric patient in cardiac arrest or respiratory failure. The 1600ml reservoir bag provides adequate oxygen volume buffering at this flow rate. The ISO5356-1 Ø22/15mm patient connector is compatible with all standard paediatric masks, LMA connectors and size-appropriate ET tube connectors.

Supply Configuration and Availability in South Africa

The CP carry bag configuration provides organised storage of all resuscitator components, reducing setup time in emergency situations and ensuring no components are misplaced between deployments. The silicone construction is autoclavable for multi-patient reuse. Available in South Africa from Vital Medical, the VM-RSSCSCP suits emergency departments, paediatric wards and pre-hospital services needing an immediately deployable child resuscitator.
