In emergency medicine, you need equipment that’s easy, rapid and reliable to use. The i-gel®, from Intersurgical, is ideal for use in emergency medicine and difficult airway management as it provides high seal pressures and reduced trauma, plus incorporates a gastric channel to give additional protection against aspiration.
Intersurgical also offer the i-gel® O2 Resus Pack which contains everything you need to prepare, insert and secure the i-gel® O2 quickly and efficiently: an i-gel® O2 supraglottic airway, a sachet of lubricant, airway support strap and a suction tube.
The i-gel® O2 has been designed to facilitate ventilation as part of standard resuscitation protocols, such as those designated by the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the American Heart Association (AHA). However, the i-gel® O2 incorporates a supplementary oxygen port, so it can also be used for the delivery of passive oxygenation, or Passive Airway Management (PAMTM), as part of an appropriate CardioCerebral Resuscitation (CCR) protocol.
The i-gel® O2 Resus Pack is available in 3 adult sizes and includes:
- i-gel® O2 supraglottic airway
- Sachet of lubricant – for quick and easy lubrication of the i-gel® O2 prior to insertion
- Airway support strap – to secure the i-gel® O2 in position
- 12 FG suction tube – for insertion through the gastric channel to empty fluid from the stomach.
