Specification for Oropharyngeal Airways

The oropharyngeal airway is a medical device used to maintain or open a patient's airway by preventing the tongue from covering the epiglottis, which could obstruct the airway.

It is typically made of rigid plastic and comes in various sizes to fit different patients, ranging from infants to adults.

Key specifications include:

  • Material: Medical-grade rigid plastic
  • Sizes: Multiple sizes corresponding to patient age and anatomy
  • Design: Curved shape that conforms to the anatomy of the oropharynx
  • Function: Prevents tongue obstruction to ensure airway patency
  • Sterility: May be supplied sterile or non-sterile depending on use

Size designation and basic requirements for materials and design.
