a.) Pocket masks are used in First Aid to provide a barrier between the rescuer and the person receiving CPR, allowing for safer and more effective rescue breaths to be administered.
b.) Bag valve masks are used in First Aid to provide positive pressure ventilation to a person who is not breathing or is experiencing respiratory distress. The mask is connected to a bag that is squeezed to deliver air into the person's lungs.

a.) Pocket masks:
- Provide a barrier between the rescuer and the victim's mouth and nose during rescue breathing. - Allow for one-way flow of air, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. - Portable and easy to use in emergencies.
b.) Bag valve mask:
- Manual resuscitator used to provide ventilation assistance to a victim who is not breathing or has inadequate breathing. - Consists of a self-inflating bag, a face mask, and a valve system that allows for controlled administration of air. - Requires more advanced training and practice to use effectively.
