My instructor for CPR told us, I don't know if its true however, that he has arrived on scene (he's an EMT) of a code, only to see two people arguing over whether or not it is 15:2 or 30:2, which is totally stupid!

Wow, were not off topic at all, but I'm not really sure that you can talk about CPR masks much more...
indeed

Yep. I've found these to be the best design available, by far. It's pretty hard to NOT get a good seal with these. They can also be used from any angle relative to the patient, from the either side, from above the head, or even astride the patient's torso. This matters because patients often are found in the darnedest places, like wedged firmly between the bathtub and the toilet. They do go a bit flat after a couple of years, but a syringe-full or two of air injected through the sealed air filling port takes care of that. The much more common design of pocket mask actually requires some good hands-on training before the user is able to reliably achieve a decent seal on most patients, and works best from the head. Jeff

...In a real CPR situation, there are blood, excretions and vomit to deal with. You get some on your gloves then you have to hold that face shield to get a good seal and guess where those fluids are? On the outside of the shield. Very true, Nemoaz. Good point. It also seems that that's about the time you see the big split in your glove...!
