The ADC Adsafe CPR Face Shield Plus provides a protective barrier between the rescuer and the patient during CPR, reducing the risk of cross-contamination during mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing. The Plus version includes both a mouthpiece and a filtered 1-way valve — the valve allows air to flow from the rescuer to the patient during rescue breaths while preventing backflow of the patient's exhaled air, saliva, and other fluids from reaching the rescuer. The face shield creates a physical barrier over the patient's face, and the mouthpiece provides a clean contact point for the rescuer's mouth during ventilation. Orange color for high visibility in emergency situations. Compact and lightweight for keychain, pocket, or first aid kit storage.
What does the 1-way valve do and why is it important?
The 1-way valve is a one-directional airflow mechanism built into the face shield. During rescue breathing, the rescuer blows air through the valve into the patient's airway — the valve opens to allow this airflow. When the patient exhales or when backflow occurs, the valve closes, preventing the patient's exhaled air, saliva, and other fluids from passing back through the shield to the rescuer. This significantly reduces the risk of cross-contamination during mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing compared to a face shield without a valve. The filter in the valve provides an additional layer of protection against airborne particles.
What is the difference between the standard Adsafe face shield and the Plus version?
The standard Adsafe CPR face shield provides a barrier layer between the rescuer and the patient but may not include a mouthpiece or filtered 1-way valve. The Plus version includes both the mouthpiece and the filtered 1-way valve, providing a more complete barrier solution with directional airflow control. For rescuers who want maximum protection during rescue breathing, the Plus version with the filtered 1-way valve is the preferred option.
How do I use a CPR face shield during rescue breathing?
Place the face shield over the patient's face with the mouthpiece positioned over the patient's mouth. The rescuer places their mouth over the mouthpiece and delivers rescue breaths as trained. The 1-way valve controls airflow direction during the breath cycle. The face shield should be positioned to cover the patient's nose and mouth to create a seal that directs the rescue breath into the airway. Follow the CPR technique as taught in your most recent CPR certification course — face shield use does not change the fundamental CPR sequence of compressions and rescue breaths.
Is this face shield single-use or reusable?
CPR face shields are generally intended for single-use or limited use in emergency situations. After use in an actual emergency, the face shield should be disposed of appropriately as it may have been exposed to bodily fluids. For CPR training purposes, face shields used during practice sessions on manikins may be reused if cleaned and disinfected according to the manufacturer's instructions between uses. Consult the product documentation for specific reuse and disposal guidance for this model.
