Subject: artificial respiration
Perhaps anybody can help me.
In my diving-club we want to buy a new equipment for artificial respiration.
For first aid in diving-accidents a 100% oxygene-artificial respiration is 
needed. I have heard of a recycling-system. So the used air is 
filtered and the co2 is absorbed. The recycled air can be given back 
to the injured person. With this absorber artifical respiration is 
possible for a long time with only a small amount of oxygene. Without 
the absorber you could only respirate for about 15 minutes. I am told 
with the absorber it is possible to respirate up to 5 hours. The used 
oxygene is replaced by only a small flow of new oxygene into the 
system.
I have heard of a system called "wenoll-system". Does anybody have 
experiences with such a kind of system? Are there other systems?
I think works like a rebreather. But it is used on the beach and for 
first-aid.
Does anybody know more about such a system?
