Nasopharyngeal Airway Insertion

• Choose an airway roughly the same diameter as patient's little finger
• Insertion depth (airway length) should be from nose to the tragus of the ear
• Use a water-soluble lubricant
• Insert with the bevel facing the nasal septum
• Direct the airway straight back along the floor of the nasal passage (not upward)
• Suction as necessary
• Administer O2 as necessary
• Contraindicated in suspected base of skull fractures
