Which devices are identified as airway devices in the material?

• A. NPA
• B. Supra Glottic
• C. Cric Kit
• D. NPA, Supra Glottic, and Cric Kit

Answer: (D)

Airway management options range from simple adjuncts to invasive procedures, all aimed at keeping a passage for air and enabling ventilation. The Nasopharyngeal Airway is a noninvasive adjunct inserted through the nose to bypass obstructions in the upper airway and maintain patency. Supraglottic airways sit above the glottis and provide a ventilation path without entering the trachea, offering rapid control of the airway when intubation isn’t immediately possible. The Cric Kit represents equipment used for a cricothyrotomy, a surgical route to establish an airway when other methods fail or aren’t feasible. Since each of these devices serves to secure or facilitate ventilation of the airway, they are all identified as airway devices in the material.
