Description
The Romsons Guedel Airway (GS-2012) is an oro-pharyngeal airway device designed to maintain an unobstructed airway in unconscious patients or those under general anaesthesia. It is constructed from a non-toxic, non-irritant PE polymer. The device is anatomically shaped to conform to the oropharynx, helping to prevent the tongue from blocking the epiglottis.
Anatomical Design: The tube's shape conforms to the oropharyngeal anatomy for proper placement. Built-in Bite Block: An integral hard bite block prevents the patient from biting their tongue and occluding the airway. Color-Coded Sizing: The bite blocks are color-coded for immediate and straightforward size identification, with size 4 being red. Atraumatic Construction: It features soft, rounded edges to reduce trauma during insertion. Suction Catheter Access: The design allows for the insertion of suction catheters to clear secretions.
Q: What is the primary use of the Romsons Guedel Airway?
A: It is designed to maintain an open oropharyngeal airway in unconscious patients or during general anaesthesia by preventing the tongue from obstructing the epiglottis.
Q: How is the correct size for a Guedel airway determined?
A: The appropriate size is determined by measuring from the center of the mouth (incisors) to the angle of the jaw to ensure the tip rests correctly behind the tongue. It is crucial to use the correct size, and a healthcare professional should make this determination.
Q: What does the color-coding on the bite block signify?
A: The bite blocks are color-coded for quick and easy identification of the airway size. For the GS-2012 model, size 4 is indicated by a red color code.
Q: What material is this airway made from?
A: The Romsons Guedel Airway is manufactured from a non-toxic, non-irritant PE polymer, featuring soft, rounded edges to reduce trauma during insertion.
Q: Is this device intended for single use?
A: Yes, the Guedel Airway is supplied in a sterile, individually packed peelable soft blister pack and is intended for single use only to maintain hygiene and patient safety.
