OXIBOY Manual Resuscitator: Features, Sizes & Buying Guide

Choosing a manual resuscitator requires careful attention to patient size, device specifications, and the accessories needed for the intended clinical setting. For hospital procurement teams and emergency-care departments, a clear purchase specification helps avoid ordering the wrong configuration.

The OXIBOY pulmonary resuscitator is a hand-operated device intended to provide or assist ventilation in patients who are not breathing or whose breathing is inadequate. Often called a manual resuscitator or bag-valve-mask device (BVM), it is intended for use by appropriately trained personnel.

This guide covers the supplied OXIBOY product specifications and the details to confirm before ordering an adult or paediatric model.

What Is a Manual Resuscitator?

A manual resuscitator uses a hand-compressed bag to deliver positive-pressure ventilation. The supplied OXIBOY description identifies a self-inflating bag, a one-way valve, a mask, and an oxygen reservoir as its principal components.

It is different from a nebulizer, which turns liquid medication into an inhalable mist. A manual resuscitator supports ventilation; it does not generate oxygen or replace a mechanical ventilator for ongoing respiratory support.

Its selection and use should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and the facility’s clinical protocols.

OXIBOY Manual Resuscitator Features

1. Self-Inflating Bag Design

The device includes a self-inflating bag operated manually by a trained user. This hand-operated design is its defining feature, distinguishing it from electrically powered ventilation equipment.

The amount of ventilation delivered depends on the device, patient requirements, and clinical technique. The bag’s stated capacity must not be treated as a recommended volume to deliver to a patient.

2. One-Way Valve and Mask

The supplied description lists a one-way valve and mask as parts of the system. Before purchase, confirm the valve configuration, mask size, and connections for the exact model.

A suitable patient interface is an important part of the setup. Do not assume that the same mask is appropriate for adult and paediatric patients.

3. Oxygen Reservoir and Tubing

The accessory list includes a PVC reservoir bag and PVC tubing. Confirm the correct assembly, oxygen-source connection requirements, and included accessories using the model-specific instructions.

An oxygen reservoir does not generate oxygen. Where supplemental oxygen is required, the appropriate external supply and connections must be available.

4. Adult and Pediatric Model Options

The supplied catalogue identifies two models:

• Adult pulmonary resuscitator: VEN-2165.
• Paediatric pulmonary resuscitator: VEN-2168.

The paediatric model is listed with a bag capacity of 500 ml (0.5 L).

The adult entry contains conflicting figures: “1000 ml” and “1.6 L.” These are not equivalent. Request written confirmation of the adult model’s actual bag capacity before comparing products or approving an order.

Practical Benefits for Procurement Teams

1. Model-Specific Ordering

Distinct adult and paediatric model numbers help buyers identify the configuration they need. Including the model number in a purchase enquiry also makes it easier to confirm accessories and request the correct documentation.

Patient suitability should still be checked against the manufacturer’s labelled patient range, rather than inferred from the model name alone.

2. A Defined System of Components

The supplied product description identifies the main components needed to understand the system: the bag, valve, mask, and reservoir.

This provides a useful starting point for checking package contents. However, buyers should obtain a model-specific packing list before ordering, particularly for the paediatric model, because the supplied accessory list explicitly names an adult mask.

3. Replacement-Accessory Planning

Checking replacement mask, reservoir, and tubing availability at the time of purchase can help departments plan future procurement.

Confirm that replacements are specified for the selected model. Physical fit alone should not be treated as evidence of compatibility.

Materials, Dimensions and Storage

The supplied construction information lists silicone, polycarbonate (PC), and a nylon fabric bag. The mask, reservoir bag, and tubing are listed as PVC.

The stated dimensions are 35 × 13 × 13 cm. Confirm whether these refer to the device, assembled system, or packed unit, and whether they apply to both models.

Storage is described as ambient room conditions. Follow the manufacturer’s specific temperature, humidity, and handling requirements rather than assuming unrestricted storage conditions.

Shelf Life and Cleaning Requirements

The main device has a stated shelf life of three years. The listed mask, reservoir bag, and tubing have a stated shelf life of two years.

Shelf life is not the same as warranty, service life, or an in-use replacement interval. Check product labels and manufacturer documentation for expiry dates and replacement requirements.

The system is listed as non-sterilized. This does not establish whether each component is reusable, single-use, or suitable for sterilization. Obtain component-specific cleaning and reprocessing instructions before purchase. Do not assume that silicone construction means the complete assembled device can be autoclaved.

What to Confirm Before Buying an OXIBOY Resuscitator

Before approving your order, request confirmation of the exact model, labelled patient range, bag capacity, included mask size, reservoir and tubing specifications, and replacement-accessory availability.

Also ask for the model-specific instructions, pre-use inspection requirements, cleaning guidance, warranty terms, and service support.

Two entries in the supplied information need particular clarification. The adult bag capacity is inconsistent, and the tubing description refers to a medicine chamber, which does not match the stated resuscitator system. Use corrected manufacturer documentation when finalising the purchase specification.

For adult model enquiries, view the OXIBOY Adult BVM Resuscitator at LubdubBazaar.

To help the team assess your requirement, include the model number, adult or paediatric configuration, required quantity, delivery location, and any accessory requirements in your enquiry. For paediatric requirements, specify model VEN-2168 and ask for its model-specific package details.

Confirm specifications and patient suitability before purchase. Manual resuscitators should be used only by appropriately trained personnel following the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable clinical protocols.
