Nasopharyngeal airways 6mm(28fr)

The Nasopharyngeal Airway 6.0 mm (28 French) is a soft, flexible airway management device designed to maintain a clear upper airway by preventing obstruction at the nasopharynx. It is suitable for pediatric patients and small adults, and is commonly used in emergency care, anesthesia, ICU, theatres, and pre-hospital settings—especially when an oropharyngeal airway is not tolerated.

Manufactured from medical-grade, biocompatible PVC, this nasopharyngeal airway features a smooth, atraumatic surface to reduce nasal trauma and enhance patient comfort. The flared proximal flange helps prevent over-insertion, ensuring safe and controlled placement.
