When providing rescue breathing to an apneic patient using a pocket face mask, each breath should be delivered with <u>6-8 mL/kg </u>of air.

<h3>DEFINITION OF APNEIC</h3>

Apnea is the medical term for a brief interruption in breathing. Patients with sleep apnea experience brief breathing pauses while they are asleep. Those who have sleep apnea might not even be aware of it. They could wake up gasping for air, and individuals who share a bed with them frequently hear them snore.

<h3>A pocket face mask is what?</h3>

In order to stop the transmission of potential germs during mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, pocket masks are used in the resuscitation of patients who have stopped breathing or are breathing insufficiently. Positive air pressure is produced using the self-inflating bag, forcing air into the patient's lungs. Another name for a pocket mask is a bag valve mask or Ambu bag.
