The CapnoFlow Oral Airway features an integrated oxygen‑delivery channel and continuous capnography port, providing airway support while enabling real‑time CO₂ monitoring. Its soft‑curve design maintains airway patency during sedation, while the reinforced bite block protects both the patient and equipment. CapnoFlow adjusts between 8cm, 9cm and 10cm. Each airway is made from smooth, medical‑grade materials designed for single‑patient use.
Shelf Life: 1‑year shelf life (use until expiration).
The CapnoFlow™ Oral Airway is intended to help maintain an open oral airway in patients requiring airway support during anesthesia, procedural sedation, or emergency care. The device facilitates supplemental oxygen delivery, capnographic monitoring and access for oropharyngeal suctioning.
The CapnoFlow™ Oral Airway is a single use, adjustable oropharyngeal airway designed to maintain a patient airway and support monitoring during procedures requiring basic airway management. Unique integrated features include:
Do not use CapnoFlow in the following situations (consistent with Guedel/Berman airway contraindications):
Conscious or semi‑conscious patients with an intact gag reflex
Active oral trauma, including broken teeth or recent oral surgery
Suspected foreign‑body airway obstruction
Known hypersensitivity to device materials
If a gag reflex, coughing, or retching occurs at any time, remove the device immediately.
Improper placement may worsen airway obstruction by pushing the tongue posteriorly.
Use only on patients who are unresponsive and unable to maintain their own airway.
Do not tape or secure the airway in a way that prevents expulsion if the patient begins to gag.
Monitor continuously for airway patency, ventilation adequacy, and oxygen saturation.
If the patient begins to regain consciousness, remove the device promptly to avoid vomiting or aspiration.
Single‑patient use only. Do not re‑use or re‑sterilize.
Select the correct size using standard OPA sizing methods (corner of mouth → angle of jaw).
Inspect the oral cavity for loose teeth, debris, or secretions before insertion.
Lubrication may be used per facility protocol.
Use caution in patients with suspected cervical spine injury—maintain neutral alignment.
Ensure the flange rests securely on the lips; do not force insertion.
Suction secretions as needed through the integrated channel to reduce aspiration risk.
Adverse events associated with oral airways—including Guedel, Berman, and CapnoFlow—may include:
Oral or dental trauma
Laryngospasm
Gagging, vomiting, or aspiration
Hypoxia due to malposition or obstruction
Bleeding or mucosal injury
Allergic reaction to device materials
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
Do not use if the packaging is opened, damaged, or expired.
Dispose of used devices in accordance with local regulations for contaminated medical waste.
