Flexible material helps to eliminate sore, scratchy throats 

The MEA is longer, softer, and smaller in diameter compared to traditional oral airways

Decreases the need for a chin lift or jaw thrust, reducing postoperative chin and jaw discomfort

Helps increase ability to breathe with ease by eliminating upper airway obstruction

Elongated shock-absorbing bite block shifts the bite to the molars, decreasing risk of dental damage 

Provides a patent airway to improve patient oxygen saturation 

By using the optional 15 mm connector with the anesthesia circuit, the longer airway delivers oxygen closer to the lungs and away from the surgical area, reducing fire risk

Large flange reduces risk of the airway dislodging

Easy to place alongside an upper endoscopy bite block

Attaches to anesthesia
circuit or bag valve mask
(BVM) to deliver apneic or
passive oxygenation
during intubation

Easy to insert, with no need for lubricant or tongue depressor

Decreases the need for a chin lift or jaw thrust, keeping providers' hands free for other tasks​

Offers an alternative method to improving oxygen saturation during routine or difficult mask ventilation

Supplied in individual small pouches for easy and convenient stocking and use
