MANUAL AND AUTOMATIC RESUSCITATION SYSTEM MARS II

Product Description

MARS II is a leading resuscitator developed for

healthcare professionals and first responders. MARS II

is specifically designed to help emergency personnel,

respond to patients that require resuscitation. The

device can be used in confined spaces, low oxygen/

toxic environments.

MARS II meets the requirements of ISO 10651-5:2006

and European Resuscitation Council Guidelines for

Resuscitation 2010 for ventilatory resuscitators.

The MARS II is available in all regional gas standards.

The GCE Medical, MARS II is a manual (CPR) and automatic

resuscitator and based on three central components: Control

Module “ Demand Valve “ Regulator or integrated valve. Depending

on the needs and national standards the MARS II can be delivered

in many variants. In combination, the following features will be

delivered.

AUTOMATIC VOLUME CYCLED RESUSCITATION

The gas supply passes through the automatic channel and is

delivered to the patient as a specific inhalation/exhalation breathing

programme by the body weight, as set on the flow

selector.

AUTOMATIC SWITCH TO BREATHING ON DEMAND

When consciousness is regained, the patient will draw gas through

the patient valve from the demand-supply side of the module. The

sensing of this flow instantly shuts down the automatic breathing

programme.

AUTO-RETURN TO AUTOMATIC RESUSCITATION

Should spontaneous breathing lapse the module will sense the

lack of flow; and volume-cycled resuscitation will resume within 5-7

seconds.

AUDIBLE ALARM

Set at 46 cm H20 pressure and mounted in the patient valve, an

audible warning of airway blockage or over-pressurization of the

patient is given to the operator.

OVERRIDE TRIGGER

Mounted in the patient valve, the override trigger enables the

operator to perform initial lung saturation and manual resuscitation.

On operation of the trigger, the automatic cycle will shut down but

restart if the trigger is not re-operated within 5-7 seconds. Total

manual operation for use in conjunction with cardiopulmonary

massage can be undertaken by selecting the 'MAN™ position on the

flow selector.
