Product information
These pre-lubricated nasopharyngeal airways (NPA) serve as airway aids for patients regardless of gag reflex status. They feature a beveled tip and are made from a soft, flexible, non-latex material for safe, effective insertion. Ready for immediate use, the 28F (117mm) airway offers comfort and ease. Individually sealed in a sturdy pouch, its pre-lubrication ensures smooth insertion, reducing discomfort and trauma while eliminating setup time.
The anatomically shaped, soft design promotes conformity, minimizing tissue injury and enhancing safety.
Manufactured in the USA with premium materials, it prioritizes efficiency and ease of use.

Evidence & Clinical Rationale — VETRUN Pre-Lubricated Nasopharyngeal Airway
A pre-lubricated nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) is an adjunct used to help maintain a patent airway in select patients by bypassing tongue/posterior pharyngeal obstruction. Integrated, sterile lubrication eliminates a step and supports smoother, faster insertion in austere or low-light conditions.
- Product specifics (manufacturer): VETRUN LLC pre-lubricated NPA; latex-free; beveled tip; soft, flexible construction; individually packaged. Available in common adult sizes (e.g., 28 Fr / ~117 mm). Confirm size/packaging on label.
- Why pre-lubed matters: Reduces kit complexity and setup time; minimizes mucosal trauma risk from dry insertion; can improve first-pass success when seconds and visibility are limited.
- Indications (per local protocol): Suspected soft-tissue upper airway obstruction in a patient unable to maintain their airway without contraindications (e.g., suspected basilar skull fracture, severe mid-face trauma).
- Technique & sizing: Size by nare tolerance/patient habitus (typical adult range ≈ 28–34 Fr). Lubricated device bevel toward septum; advance along the nasal floor. Tip should rest ~1 cm above the epiglottis. Reassess for effectiveness/tolerance.
- Training notes: Prioritize airway positioning and suction when available; use NPAs when indicated by protocol. Document side, size, time, and patient response; secure the device; restock immediately post-use.
Training rationale: Favor simple, high-yield actions that do not delay hemorrhage control. Continue reassessment and maintain readiness with sealed refills.
