Oropharyngeal Airway (Guedel Airway)

Oropharyngeal Airway is also called Guedel Airway. It is a medical device called an airway adjunct used to maintain a patent (open) airway. It does this by preventing the tongue from (either partially or completely) covering the epiglottis, which could prevent the patient from breathing. When a person becomes unconscious, the muscles in their jaw relax and may allow the tongue to obstruct the airway; in fact, the tongue is the most common cause of a blocked airway.

This piece of equipment is utilized by certified first responders, emergency medical technicians, and paramedics when intubation is either not available or not advisable. Oropharyngeal airways are usually indicated for unconscious patients, because there is a high probability that the device would stimulate a conscious patient's gag reflex. This could cause the patient to vomit and potentially lead to an obstructed airway.
