When a patient's mechanical ventilator malfunctions, you
should take out the patient from the ventilator and “begin ventilations with a
bag-mask device”. If ever a mechanical ventilator malfunctions, you should start
ventilations with a bag-mask device or also known as bag-valve masks. While,
you are ventilating a patient, ask help from others to seek medical control, to
control the situation properly.
