Aspir-Guard Throat Packs
L7500
Aspir-Guard prevents fluids and dental debris from being
accidentally aspirated during a routine dental procedure.
Consumables
Numerous publications and textbooks state that the standard
of care requires the use of a material to block the oropharynx
from accidental aspiration of fluids that accumulate during
every dental procedure.
Aspir-Guard is a dehydrated PVA donut-shaped guard that
when rehydrated, has a soft gentle sponge-like feel. The
rehydrated Aspir-Guard is placed over the distal end of the ET
tube prior to
intubation. The attached strings are used to fasten the AspirGuard to the anaesthetic tie used to secure the ET tube to the
patient.
After the patient is intubated, the Aspir-Guard is moved into
place to block the oropharynx from fluid aspiration. Once
the procedure is finished, the Aspir-Guard is gently removed
together with the ET tube.
