The Kemp Ambu BVM with HEPA Filter is constructed from SEBS (styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene) rather than PVC, making it environmentally safer and fully disposable. SEBS eliminates the cross-contamination risk between patients, which is critical in emergency resuscitation. Unlike PVC-based BVMs that may require cleaning and reprocessing, the SEBS construction supports single-use disposal, reducing infection control concerns for EMS professionals, hospitals, and emergency responders. The material choice also supports safer waste management in medical facilities.

The crystal-clear valve housing provides an unobstructed view of valve operation during manual resuscitation. That transparency lets clinicians visually confirm proper valve function in real time, supporting effective ventilation delivery. The slim, ergonomic design further improves visualization of the mask seal and patient airway, giving responders better control during critical efforts. This matters most in high-stress emergencies where visual confirmation prevents ventilation errors.

The integrated HEPA filter attachment provides 99.99% bacterial and viral filtration efficiency, creating a protective barrier against airborne pathogens during resuscitation. That filtration level protects both the patient receiving ventilation and the provider administering care from cross-contamination. The HEPA filter fits most standard resuscitation masks and bag valve masks, making it compatible with existing emergency equipment while adding a layer of infection control that matters during respiratory disease outbreaks or when treating patients of unknown infectious status.

The Kemp Ambu BVM with HEPA Filter comes in two patient sizes. Adult covers patients over 66 lbs (30 kg), roughly adolescent and up. Pediatric covers 22 to 66 lbs (10 to 30 kg). Each pack contains two identical units in the size selected, and sizes are not mixed within a pack. An agency covering both ranges would order one pack of each, giving four units total. The pediatric model delivers the smaller tidal volume appropriate to younger patients, which guards against barotrauma.

Yes. The Kemp Ambu BVM with HEPA Filter is built for EMS professionals and emergency responders working in field environments, ambulances, and pre-hospital settings. The fully disposable single-use design removes the need for field decontamination or reprocessing between calls, which suits high-volume emergency services. The HEPA filter attachment adds infection control without compromising portability. Both sizes are compact enough for jump bags, trauma kits, and ambulance storage, and the two-unit pack keeps a replacement staged on the shelf so a used unit can be swapped out without waiting on a restock order.
