When you can't breathe or something. It gives you oxygen or whatever... You know in the ambulances the stick an IV in you and cover your mouth with the mask to help you breathe. Does that mask have a name?

It is called a non-rebreather mask. The mask with the blue bag that they squeeze is called a BVM or bag valve mask, we also have rebreather masks which look similar to the non-rebreather's. Then there is the ET tube (endotracheal tube) we put down your throat when you can't breathe for yourself.
