Nasopharyngeal Airway

The Nasopharyngeal Airway (NPA) is an airway management device that is inserted through the nose into the nasopharynx to prevent upper airway obstruction and helps maintain safe breathing. It maintains a patent airway in situations such as when the tongue falls back or when oral structures obstruct the airway. It is the most effective alternative, simple airway solution in situations where the oral route cannot be used (oral trauma, jaw lock, intraoral masses, dental/facial injuries). Because it can also be used in semi-conscious patients with a gag reflex, it is indispensable in tactical medicine, PHTLS, ambulance, and emergency medicine.

Purposes
• Preventing upper airway obstruction by the tongue or soft tissues
• Alternative airway management when the oral route cannot be used
• Maintaining airway patency in patients with decreased consciousness, semi-consciousness, or unconsciousness
• Providing an airway for patients with oral trauma, jaw lock (trismus), intraoral masses, and facial injuries
• Essential airway device in TCCC, PHTLS, and emergency medicine protocols
Advantages
• Nasal administration: Ideal solution when the oral route cannot be used.
