A comparison of cannula insufflation device performance for emergency front of neck airway.

CONCLUSION: Rapid-O2 , Enk-OFM, Manujet and 3-way stopcock oxygenation devices produced highly variable and excessive airway pressures and volumes in models with obstructed upper airways. Self-inflating bag insufflation was unsuccessful. Ventrain was the only device that insufflated oxygen with acceptable pressures and volumes in adult, child and infant airway models with any degree of airway obstruction.
