A ventilation system for ventilation of a patient includes a patient interface device for attaching to the patient and a measuring and analysis device for measuring and analyzing breathing of the patient. The measuring and analysis device includes a connector housing defining a passage. A first portion of the connector housing is connected to the patient interface device. The measuring and analysis device further includes an air flow sensor and a pressure sensor disposed in the connector housing for measuring an air flow rate through the connector housing and a pressure in the connector housing respectively. The present device also includes a processor configured for data acquisition, data storage, data processing, and data output based on the air flow rate and the pressure, whereby the ventilation system is operable with real-time feedback based on the data output. A method for administering cardiopulmonary resuscitation is also provided.
