Description

A Guedel airway is a medical device used to maintain an open airway in unconscious or sedated patients, preventing obstruction by the tongue or soft tissues of the throat. Key features include: - **Design**: Features a curved or J-shaped tube with a flange or lip at one end to keep it in place against the patient's teeth or lips. - **Size**: Available in various sizes to fit different patient ages and anatomies. - **Material**: Typically made from plastic or rubber. - **Versatility**: Used during medical emergencies, anesthesia induction, or to facilitate mechanical ventilation. - **Safety**: Helps prevent airway obstruction and facilitates ventilation, particularly in patients who are unconscious or under anesthesia. Guedel airways are essential tools for airway management in emergency and clinical settings, ensuring adequate oxygenation and ventilation in patients who are unable to maintain their airway independently.
