مستخلص: The flood of patients with respiratory problems during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic can overwhelm the local healthcare systems, with the number of casualties exceeding local resources and capabilities in a short period. To temporarily replace the mechanical ventilator during mechanical ventilator shortages and to help clinicians triage patients, manual resuscitator devices can be used to deliver respirations to a patient requiring breathing support. The manual resuscitator which is based on a bag valve mask (BVM) was chosen as it is inexpensive, easy to use, widely available, and already has its safety features, however, it requires a medical professional to be present, and constantly applying compression to provide the patient with respirations. In this research, an automatic air bag-based mechanical ventilator was developed. This device provides automated compressions of a BVM repetitively. The treatment parameters supported in an automated air bag-based mechanical ventilator are tidal volume (VT), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), the ratio of inspiratory and expiratory time, respiration rate (10 to 30 respiration/minute), and an adjustable fraction of inspired oxygen, FiO2. An oximeter was added to the ventilator system to measure the oxygenation level in the patient. Performance tests were conducted to evaluate the delivered tidal volume, respiration rate, I: E ratio, and FiO2 of the ventilator. The results were then compared with the commercial emergency ventilator. Using the statistical technique, it shows that a good agreement is obtained between the improved ventilator and the commercial ventilator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
