➤ How much should I squeeze different BVMs to deliver approximately 600 mL?
Estimate squeeze fraction by bag size. For pediatric bags (450–700 mL) you will need near‑full compression — roughly 85–100% — to reach 600 mL. Compact adult/medium bags (800–1,200 mL) usually require 50–75% compression. Large adult bags (1,500–2,000 mL) need about 30–40% compression. Neonatal bags cannot deliver safe 600 mL.
