Oropharyngeal Airway Indications:
Guedel airway insertion is a careful process. You have to select op airway sizes first as per the patient. After that, you need to insert the oropharyngeal airway adjunct into the patient's mouth upside down. The oropharyngeal airway tube can move on 180 degrees.
For children and infants, you have to be more careful. You can use a tongue depressor to hold the tongue to make oropharyngeal airway insertion easier for children.
Remove the oral airway devices when the patient re-establishes their swallow reflex and is able to defend their own airway.
