Pulmonary resuscitators (pneumatic, reusable) are medical devices that deliver or assist breathing to patients experiencing apnea or insufficient respiration. They use compressed oxygen (and sometimes medical air) to generate automatic pressure cycles, ensuring consistent ventilation via a face mask or endotracheal tube in critical settings like ambulances, ICUs, or emergency rooms.
These devices are typically regulated as reusable medical equipment, requiring compliance with safety, performance, and maintenance standards. They may be supplied as standalone units or integrated into emergency response systems, often used in high-stakes environments like mass casualty incidents or patient transfers.
