  • Patent number: 4697587
    Abstract: A disposable mouth-to-mouth resuscitation device which avoids mouth-to-mouth contact of a rescuer with the victim being resuscitated, and which prevents exhaled vomit from the victim from coming into contact with the rescuer. The device includes a body having a mouthpiece into which the rescuer breathes. The mouthpiece includes a mask that covers the mouth of the victim during resuscitation. A tongue depressor tube insertable into a victim's mouth is releasably attached to the body. A flapper valve disposed in the body permits the victim to exhale breath and vomit from coming into contact with the mouth of the rescuer. The victim's breath exits through an escape port that bypasses the flapper valve.
