Purpose

Provide a protective barrier for rescue breathing.

Used in kits

Alternatives

  • Pocket maskEasier seal and technique; bulkier to carry.

Maintenance notes

  • Keep it where a responder can grab it instantly.

Buying considerations

  • A rigid pocket mask is easier to use well than a flat film shield.

⚠️ Safety notes

  • CPR is a trained skill — take a certified CPR/AED course; a barrier device does not replace that training.
