Ive noticed that the ResQPOD adds some height and weight to the ventilation circuit. Should I be concerned at all about the tube dislodging?
The ResQPOD does add some height and weight to the ventilation circuit. For this reason, ACSI strongly recommends that the user uses a commercially available tube restraint device when using the ResQPOD. We do not advocate using tape for this purpose. Prior to attaching the ResQPOD, the tubes placement should be confirmed. The same care should be taken with the ResQPOD as when using a resuscitator bag alone: secure the tube will and reassess frequently.
