Rescue Ready Oropharyngeal Airway — a simple and reliable solution for maintaining airway patency

The oropharyngeal airway from Rescue Ready is a medical device designed to ensure patency of the patient's oropharynx. The airway is made of materials commonly used in medicine (rigid plastic or rubber-like materials) and has a characteristic J-shape that holds the tongue in an anterior position and prevents it from falling back, which is critically important in cases of unconsciousness or sedation.

Advantages and features

The Rescue Ready oropharyngeal airway is designed for rapid application in emergency medical care, during anesthesia, and in cases where effective lung ventilation is required. Key features include:

• J-shaped design for maintaining an open airway;
• minimal stimulation of the gag reflex compared to nasopharyngeal airways;
• suitable for unconscious or sedated patients;
• ensures reliable airflow and facilitates artificial lung ventilation;
• X-ray compatibility — the airways are radiolucent, allowing for position monitoring during X-ray examinations.

It is recommended to have several sizes in the kit to select the optimal length according to the patient's anatomy. Available sizes: 40 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm, 100 mm, 110 mm, and 120 mm.

Area of application

Rescue Ready oropharyngeal airways are widely used in emergency departments, emergency medical services, during resuscitation, in operating rooms, and intensive care units. They are effective in maintaining airway patency in patients with impaired consciousness, during induction and maintenance of anesthesia, and in situations where rapid and reliable intubation or ventilation is required.
