(Health-NewsWire.Net, October 05, 2015 ) Clearwater, Florida -- Anna Loehwing, COO and spokesperson for First Aid Shoppe, suppliers of high-end first aid and survival gear, reported today that the one-way valve in their mini CPR Mask is a full-function valve to control the one-way flow of air from the rescue breather to the victim. The valve is fixed at the center of each fold-out mask, and is designed to prevent ejecta and sputum from the victim from coming back through to the person administering CPR.
"These are meant to be small, very portable versions of a full-on CPR mask," says Ms. Loehwing. "The idea is that you can clip one to your key ring and forget about it. Then, when you really need it, it's right there and ready to go."
The Mini CPR Keychain Mask is a semi-transparent face shield with instructions for use printed on the outward facing side. In a CPR emergency it is folded out for use and placed over the victim's mouth. The one-way valve controls airflow to the victim, preventing cross-contamination of fluids between the rescue breather and the victim. The mask is stored, folded, in a small nylon pouch that comes with an attached key ring.
"We're selling these in packs of five," says Ms. Loehwing. "It's good to have one of these in a few spots, even give one to a friend. The little nylon pouch is about the size of a standard key fob, so it's easy to clip one to your keys. Even if you don't know CPR, if there's an emergency and there's someone there who does, you can give them this mask to protect themselves while they are, in turn, saving someone else."
The Mini CPR Keychain Mask is available on Amazon and sells in packs of five.
