Abstract
A bi-functional intubating and ventilating supraglottic airway includes a supraglottic bowl defining a distal end, a neck extending outward of the supraglottic bowl and defining a proximal end, and a longitudinally extending intubation conduit formed therethrough. The supraglottic bowl includes a cuff and defines a bowl surface, wherein the intubation conduit extends from the proximal end of the neck to an opening in the bowl surface, and wherein the intubation conduit is configured to have an endotracheal tube inserted therethrough. At least one fluid flow channel is formed longitudinally through a wall of the supraglottic airway, collaterally to the intubation conduit, from the proximal end to the bowl surface within the supraglottic bowl.
