A breathing bag 0.5 liters is a medical device used in anesthesia and respiratory care to manually or mechanically ventilate smaller patients, such as infants or young children, or for low-volume ventilation needs. Like its larger counterparts, the 0.5-liter breathing bag is a component of an anesthesia circuit or a manual resuscitator and is used to provide controlled ventilation during surgeries, in emergency situations, or for patients with compromised respiratory function.
The smaller size is specifically designed to deliver appropriate volumes of air or anesthetic gases to pediatric patients, ensuring safe and effective ventilation. It is commonly used in neonatal and pediatric intensive care units, operating rooms, and emergency care settings.
