Provides suctioning and and alternative airway during emergencies.
The Portex Nasopharyngeal airway facilitates suctioning in intensive care and also provides an alternative airway during accident and emergency procedures when the oropharyngeal pathway is occluded.
Nasopharyngeal Airways are specially designed to be inserted into the nasal passageway to secure an open airway in patients who become unconscious. When a patient becomes unconscious, the muscles in the jaw commonly relax, making it possible for the tongue to slip back and obstruct the airway.
Key Features
Maximum kink-resistance helps to ensure a patent airway
Satin smooth finish facilitates insertion
Smooth edges designed to help increase patient comfort
Supplied with a safety pin in the pack for the option of an enlarged flange
