Manual ventilation is a vital procedure, which remains difficult to achieve for
patients who require ventilatory support. It has to be performed by experienced
healthcare providers that are regularly trained for the use of bag-valve-mask
(BVM) in emergency situations. We will give in this paper, a historical view on
manual ventilation's evolution throughout the last decades and describe the
technical characteristics, advantages, and hazards of the main devices currently
found in the market. Artificial ventilation has developed progressively and
research is still going on to improve the actual devices used. Throughout the
past years, a brand-new generation of ventilators was developed, but little was
done for manual ventilation. Many adverse outcomes due to faulty valve or
misassembly were reported in the literature, as well as some difficulties to
ensure efficient insufflation according to usual respiratory parameters. These
serious incidents underline the importance of BVM system routine check and
especially the unidirectional valve reassembly after sterilization, by only
experienced and trained personnel. Single use built-in devices may prevent
disassembly problems and are safer than the reusable ones. Through new devices
and technical improvements, the safety of BVM might be increased.
