Principles of operation

Assembly View (A)
GIMA Resuscitator is composed in 4 components
(A) Non-rebreathing (duckbill) Valve (B) Silicone Bag (C) Reservoir Valve (D) Oxygen Reservoir
The Reservoir Valve and the Oxygen Reservoir should be removed if supplemental oxygen is not to be
supplied.
Principle Drawing (B) - Inspiration
When compressing down the Resuscitator, it create the positive pressure and close the Intake Valve
(G), the air inside the bag pushes the Duckbill Valve (E) downward, and block the expiration port (F),
and deliver the air into the Silicone Bag then to the patient through the center of the Duckbill Valve, if the
Oxygen is in use, it should be connected by (H) part, then the Oxygen will fill up the Reservoir through the
Reservoir Valve, and installs in the Silicone Bag through the recovery inhale motion, then send directly
into the patient's body by compressing the silicone bag.
Principle Drawing (C) - Exhalation
When releasing the Silicone Bag (B), push upward the Duckbill Valve and keep it in close position, so to
release the exhale air through the Exhale Valve (F).
At the same time, the Inhale Valve (G) is opened by the expiratory pressure created by releasing the bag,
and send the air into the bag through the top of the Reservoir Valve, and at the same time, send the Oxygen
into the bag from the Oxygen Reservoir till the bag returns to the original shape before compressing.
To avoid excessive Oxygen flow rate and low compressing frequency causing too high pressure inside
the bag and the Reservoir, the Reservoir Valve (I) is specially designed to release the excessive air, to
keep a low rate Oxygen supply and ensure the patient's safety.
