Ventilation is concluded and expiration has just started, see (1.2).
NOTE: If a leakage occurs around the mask or if insufflation proves difficult, it is normally due
to incorrect positioning when lifting the chin or to insufficient hyperextension of the head.
To comply with the requirements of the hygienic system, and to achieve a proper seal and
accurate measuring results, a head bag must always be used.
All trainees must use their own face piece and head bag only during training.
