Automatic ventilation during bronchoscopy: experience with a Bird Mark 2 ventilator. 1977

One hundred and fifty patients were ventilated artificially during bronchoscopy using a Bird Mark 2 ventilator with either oxygen or a nitrous oxide in oxygen mixture as the driving gas. Satisfactory conditions for the examination were achieved. There was no significant deterioration in PaO2 or PaCO2.
