Abstract

An artificial respiration bag (10) comprises an inflatable sidewardly folded reservoir (11). A holding element (12) and a support (15) forming a lumen opening (16) and connected to a cuff (13) are provided for on the reservoir. The entire artificial respiration bag (10) is produced from a silicone or thermoplastic elastomer. In this manner, the artificial respiration bag (10) is manufactured from a material to which the skin is insensitive and which does not cause allergic reactions. The holding element (12) has an integrally vulcanized holding ring (12'). The support (15) has a surrounding enlargement (20) which engages a shoulder (19) of the cuff and is permanently attached thereto. In this manner, the artificial respiration bag (10) fulfills the strength and safety requirements of ISO-standard 5362.
