Nasopharyngeal airway - ✔✔When tongue is obstructing airway. Tube is
lubricated and passed through the nose into nasal cavity. Sits in oropharynx behind
tongue. Well tolerated and can be used on awake pts.

position. Often interfere with intra oral procedures. Not tolerated well with awake
pts.

placed blindly. Does not protect against aspiration. Inflated with 30cc to create
seal.

terminates half way between vocal cords and bifurcation of trachea. Important to
listen to both lungs after placement. May or May not be cuffed.
Combitube - ✔✔Generally used for specific emergencies. Both cuffs inflated.
Pts predisposed to bronchospasm - ✔✔Allergies, asthma, copd, bronchitis
