ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a portable respirator and method of using same which includes a container having an enlarged opening that is flared outwardly, adapted to fit over the mouth area of a person requiring resuscitation, a plurality of unrestricted fenestrations closely placed together and disposed at an end of the container remote from the enlarged opening, in which the fenestrations are grouped in such a manner that a palm area of a rescuer's hand can cover all fenestrations and thereafter applying the same hand's fingers along a resilient deformable body portion from the opening to the fenestrations so that when the palm area occludes the fenestrations. Deforming the body portion will provide an air pulse into the mouth of a person to be rescued.
