Nasopharyngeal Airway

Product Description

In medicine, a nasopharyngeal airway, also known as an NPA, nasal trumpet (because of its flared ), or nose hose, a type of airway adjunct, is a tube that is designed to be inserted into the nasal passageway to secure an open airway. When a patient becomes unconscious, the muscles in the jaw commonly relax and can allow the tongue to slide back and obstruct the airway. This makes airway management necessary, and an NPA is one of the available tools. The purpose of the flared  is to prevent the device from becoming lost inside the patient nose.
