Some of our volunteers practicing airway management, using a 2 handed C-grip technique and a BVM (bag valve mask) to provide the casualty with oxygen supported ventilations. ![]()

The 2 handed grip is the most effective way of maintaining a good seal around the patient's face whilst providing adequate ventilations. As you can see it requires 2 rescuers, so it's not always a feasible option, however it's considered the 'gold standard' when ventilating with a BVM and thats what we train to!![]()
