Oropharyngeal Airway

Product Description: The oropharyngeal airway is a medical device from the manufacturer Rescue Ready, designed to establish and maintain patency of the patient's oropharynx. The airway is typically made of rigid plastic or rubber and has a characteristic J-shape, which allows it to securely fix the tongue's position and prevent it from falling back. This design makes it indispensable in emergency care, during anesthesia, and for ensuring effective artificial lung ventilation.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Simple and intuitive design: The J-shape facilitates easy insertion and correct placement of the device.
• Airway patency support: Prevents obstruction caused by the tongue falling back during loss of consciousness or sedation.
• Optimal assistance in unconscious states: Effective during resuscitation efforts and when connected to a respiratory apparatus.
• Reduced gag reflex stimulation: Compared to nasopharyngeal airways, oropharyngeal airways typically cause fewer gag reactions.
• X-ray compatibility: The airways are radiopaque (visible on X-rays), simplifying position control during diagnosis and treatment.

Areas of Application: The device is used in emergency medicine, anesthesia, intensive care units, and in tactical medicine field conditions where it is necessary to quickly restore or maintain airway patency for lung ventilation.

Technical Specifications:
Available sizes ensure versatility of application depending on the patient's age and anatomical features. Sizes to consider when choosing: 40 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm, 100 mm, 110 mm, and 120 mm.

Advantages for Professionals and Emergency Services:
The Rescue Ready oropharyngeal airway facilitates quick instruction for medical personnel and rescuers, reduces the risk of airway obstruction in situations where the patient cannot independently maintain patency, and promotes effective lung ventilation with minimal gag reflex stimulation.
