I-GEL

The i-gel is a type of supraglottic airway device used in anesthesia to secure a patient’s airway during surgery. It is designed to provide a quick, safe, and effective means of ventilation without the need for intubation. The i-gel is inserted into the throat, forming a seal around the airway to deliver oxygen and anesthetic gases.

The device is made from soft, gel-like material, which helps reduce the risk of trauma to the airway. It is widely used in both routine and emergency situations for its ease of use, reliability, and minimal discomfort for patients. The i-gel is an essential tool for airway management in various medical procedures.
