The Curaplex® Resuscitation Training Kit features a lung-stomach simulation device that is designed to illustrate the effect excessive delivered pressure has on a patient during resuscitation. Pressures > 20cm H2O open the esophageal sphincter, forcing air into the stomach creating distention and gastric insufflations leading to aspiration and associated pneumonia.

EMS providers and students alike can benefit from using the Curaplex® Resuscitation Training Kit to learn about and demonstrate pressure delivery, while increasing their confidence performing resuscitation using Curaplex® premium bag valve masks.
