Your patient is unresponsive and begins to vomit as a result of excessive bag-mask device ventilations. Why is this a potential problem?
◦ If the vomit enters the bronchioles, the exchange of oxygen cannot take place.
◦ Vomit may travel into the valve in the bag-mask device, rendering it useless.
◦ An unresponsive patient loses control of the epiglottis, which may allow substances to enter the lungs.
◦ If the patient becomes responsive he may choke on the vomit.
