Are these oral airways sterile?

Is the ADC Guedel Disposable Oral Airway Kit latex-free?
Yes, the ADC Guedel Disposable Oral Airway Kit is not made with natural rubber latex.
Does the reinforced bite block ensure patient safety?
Yes, all eight disposable oral airways in the kit feature a reinforced bite block. This reinforced design is crucial for patient safety, as its primary function is to prevent the patient from biting down and potentially occluding the airway, thereby helping to maintain an open and patent path.
What is included in the comprehensive airway kit?
The ADC Guedel Disposable Oral Airway Kit provides a comprehensive, organized solution for maintaining an open airway across a wide range of patient sizes.
Included in the kit are:
- Eight Disposable Oral Airways: This complete set features sizes from Neonate (Size 00, 40 mm) up to XX-Large Adult (Size 6, 110 mm). The airways are constructed from flexible polyethylene, include a reinforced bite block for patient safety, and are distinctly color-coded for rapid selection in critical situations.
- Hard Storage Case: A durable hard plastic case is supplied to keep the eight single-use, non-sterile airways neatly organized, protected, and easily accessible.
Are the airways clearly color-coded by size?
Yes, rapid size selection is ensured through a comprehensive dual identification system:
- Color-Coding: All eight distinct sizes included in the kit (ranging from Neonate Size 00 to XX-Large Adult Size 6) are individually color-coded for immediate visual recognition.
- Embossed Markings: For precise confirmation, the size is also permanently embossed in millimeters (mm) directly onto the airway body, covering the full range from 40 mm up to 110 mm.
This system allows for quick and unambiguous selection, which is crucial in high-stress environments.
How long is the shelf life of the airway kit?
The ADC Guedel Disposable Oral Airway Kit is warranted until use or expiration. Typically, the product has a 1-year shelf life from the date of manufacture. Since these are single-use disposable devices, the warranty and intended period of readiness conclude upon either their first application or reaching the noted expiration date.
Is size identification easy and clear?

The airways feature a dual identification system:
- Color-Coding: All eight distinct sizes included (ranging from Neonate/Size 00 to XX-Large Adult/Size 6) are color-coded for immediate visual selection.
- Embossed Sizing: The precise size in millimeters (mm) is permanently embossed directly onto each airway for accurate verification.
Are these airways made from safe, high-quality materials?

- Reinforced Bite Block: To ensure the airway remains patent, every unit includes an integrated, reinforced bite block that prevents the patient from occluding the tube by clenching their teeth.
- Latex-Free: The components are strictly not made with natural rubber latex, making them a safe choice for patients with latex sensitivities.
- Single-Use Design: These airways are designed for single-use applications to promote high standards of hygiene and effectively prevent cross-contamination in medical environments.
