TULIP AIRWAY

The Tulip airway is a range of airway devices designed to allow anyone to resuscitate anybody anywhere, even by family members and children at home... Equally, the Tulip® may be used for first-line airway intervention, starved-elective anaesthesia, endotracheal intubation, endoscopy or nasogastric and orogastric tube insertion. The Tulip's® large, oropharyngeal, balloon-like cuff is particularly advantageous in ENT and Dental surgery, as no endotracheal intubation is required because the Tulip's® large, 30 - 60ml, high-volume, low-pressure cuff produces an airtight seal within the oropharynx, e.g., above the laryngeal inlet and below the level of the surgery... This was statistically significant in favour of the Tulip® airway at a p < 0.001 level.
