Q&A for Ambu bag/manual resuscitator | China Manual Resuscitator Ambu Bag Manufacturer
August 11 , 2021
Are Ambu bags reusable?

Some Ambu bags can be cleaned (sterilized) and used repeatedly.



Does an Ambu bag expire or wear out?

Some Ambu bags are disposable after one use, others are reusable depending on their manufacture.


How do you clean an Ambu bag after use?

If an Ambu bag is of the reusable type, it must be disassembled and thoroughly cleaned, first of any “gross soiling” through meticulous hand-rinsing, washing, and re-rinsing. Some Ambu bags can be sterilized in an autoclave at 134° C or 272° F.

Otherwise, it must be sterilized through the use of the recommended disinfectant solution. Glutaraldehyde 2% is an appropriately high-level disinfectant; the bag must be immersed in the solution for at least 20 minutes.

Because of the complicated structure of the Ambu bag, it is recommended that disposable models be used in cases where proper cleaning and sterilization protocols and equipment are not in place.


How long does an Ambu bag last?

Life of any Ambu bag depends on its design, what materials it is made from, how it has been cleaned, and in what situations it has been used. Any Ambu bag being reused must be disassembled, thoroughly cleaned and sterilized, then reassembled and tested after each use.
