After July 1st, the Division will no longer purchase the King LTD SGA. After discussion with the medical director, we have elected to move to the I-Gel SGA for all ages with the exception of neonates. The sizes are listed below. Stations are responsible for purchasing the initial stock of I-Gels (size 1.5 thru 5) and conducting in station training. Once the switch over has occurred, DES will then begin to stock the adult sizes (3 – 5) in the U Cap It. Stations will be responsible for purchasing the replacement pediatric sizes (1.5 thru 2.5).
These airways come in 2 different packages. One has a tray to maintain shape and the other one does not. Having the airways smashed during storage is a concern for me so I will be purchasing the package that has the tray.
