What is it indicated for?

The BE 183-SUR and BE 183-SU Manual Jet Ventilators are designed to provide transtracheal ventilation in specific emergency situations of upper airway obstructions. These systems are used in conjunction with a transtracheal catheter, or cricothyrotomy needle, which is inserted through the cricothyroid membrane. Ventilation is accomplished by the manual, intermittent jetting of oxygen through the catheter for subsequent lung inflation.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA 510(k) statement, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
