What is the grip?
Pressing a bulb is a device that can be used to aspirate or pumping fluid and gases. In the medical community there are a number of different uses for pressing bulbs, from the old -fashioned cuff to the blood pressure to the AMBU bags used to ventilate patients who cannot breathe themselves. Pressing the bulb also appears in a number of other settings because the devices are simple, but also highly versatile and are very easy to use. When someone presses on the bulb, the air or liquid is pushed inside. The release of the balloon absorbs air or liquid back. If necessary, a valve on the opening can also be used. In a sense, the bulb is a simple pump, and these devices can actually be used in this way. Pressing the bulb can also be used to control the aspiration of the gas or the liquid, while the user releases the bulb enough to suck something. For example, onion pressing is sometimes used to clean the noses of children after birth, with a small nozzle inserted into the nose,While the doctor releases the connected bulb to pull out the mucus and the other detritus that can clog the nasal airways.
The modified version of the Squeeezebulb can also be seen on the pipette Pasteur or the drum. In this case, the bulb is connected to the rigid tube and the bulb can be pressed and released for fluid transmission. Sometimes liquid drugs are packed with an eye for administration, and these devices are also used in laboratories for transmission and liquid handling. While checking the exact quantities is difficult, so these devices are inappropriate for measurement, many other tasks can be performed with an eye dropper.
Pressing the bulb are usually made of rubber because this flexible and strong, which is suitable for this type of application. Alternative materials are available for use in patients who have an allergy to latex to prevent contact dermatitis or airway irritation. These versions mThey also tend to endure because they are stiffer than latex products used in a traditional bulb. However, durability may not be a problem, because many bulbs are designed to be one -off.
