Whatever you can get parts for, I suppose.
We chose parts you can get from Home Depot and Amazon/Ebay only, except for the PCB, which you will be able to make with hand-soldered components.
Also: make sure you choose a design where it is not possible to over-pressure the lungs. Even so much as 1.5PSI can damage them permanently. As well, the design must never allow the pressure to drop below about 300 pascals (above STP), or the patient will eventually suffocate due to alveoli collapsing.
- phkahler 7y ago300 pascals? That's darn near a vacuum. Did you mean not to let it drop more than 300 Pa below ambient?
- adammunich 7y agoIt cannot go under STP + 300 pascals, must always be positive pressure.
- sudosysgen 7y agoIf anyone's wondering, atmospheric pressure is 101 300Pa, so 300 Pa is extremely low.
