The SGA + BVM Resus Kit (SKU: BNDL-AIRWAY-002) is a MED-TAC curated airway management bundle pairing the i-gel Supraglottic Airway (SGA) with a Pocket BVM resuscitator in a minimal-footprint package. It delivers complete secure airway establishment and ventilatory support capability — the two core components of advanced airway resuscitation — in a single ready-to-deploy kit for emergency responders, medics, and EMS teams.

Product Overview
Airway management in emergency and prehospital settings requires two sequential capabilities: establishing a secure airway and delivering effective ventilation. The SGA + BVM Resus Kit addresses both in the smallest possible footprint by pairing the i-gel supraglottic airway — the most widely adopted SGA in prehospital emergency medicine — with a Pocket BVM resuscitator designed for single-operator or two-operator ventilation.
The i-gel SGA is a cuffless supraglottic airway manufactured from a soft, thermoplastic elastomer that conforms to the perilaryngeal anatomy without requiring inflation. This eliminates the cuff inflation step, dramatically reducing time to functional airway from insertion to ventilation — insertion can be achieved in under 5 seconds in trained hands. The integral gastric channel allows aspiration risk management without the additional step of inserting a separate gastric tube. The device is aligned with AHA and ERC resuscitation protocols as a supraglottic airway option for cardiac arrest and respiratory failure management.
The Pocket BVM provides one-handed tidal volumes of 500–600 mL through a compact, collapsible resuscitator with standard 22mm/15mm ANSI/ISO connections. The combination allows a single responder to establish and maintain ventilation with the i-gel secured in place, using the Pocket BVM for manual breath delivery while maintaining free hands for other interventions. This bundle is sized for IFAK pouches, side cargo pockets, and compact medical kits where a full-size BVM is impractical.
i-gel Supraglottic Airway: Key Advantages
- No cuff inflation — non-inflatable thermoplastic elastomer cuff seats anatomically on insertion
- Rapid insertion — functional airway achievable in under 5 seconds
- Integral gastric channel — reduces aspiration risk without separate suction tube
- 15 mm connector — direct BVM or ventilator attachment via standard ANSI/ISO connection
- Color-coded sizing — size 3 (yellow, 30–60 kg), size 4 (green, 50–90 kg), size 5 (orange, 90+ kg)
- Integral bite block — reduces risk of airway channel occlusion in the responsive patient
- AHA/ERC protocol-aligned for cardiac arrest resuscitation and rescue breathing
Clinical & Operational Use Cases
The SGA + BVM Resus Kit is designed for scenarios where bag-mask ventilation has failed or is impractical, endotracheal intubation is not immediately available, and a definitive supraglottic airway is needed rapidly. Primary applications include cardiac arrest CPR support, apnea management during prolonged field care, and rescue breathing for unconscious trauma patients with inadequate airway protection. The kit's compact footprint makes it suitable as an add-on to any IFAK, crash bag, or ALS kit without displacing primary hemorrhage control components.
