Quick, easy and reliable to insert, i-gel® accurately positions itself over the laryngeal framework to provide a reliable perilaryngeal seal without the need for an inflatable cuff. It also incorporates a gastric channel for improved safety, an integral bite block to reduce the possibility of airway occlusion and a buccal cavity stabiliser to aid rapid insertion and reduce the potential for rotation. i-gel® is ideal for use in anaesthesia, and in adults for resuscitation and as a conduit for intubation with fibreoptic guidance.

i-gel® is currently available in seven sizes and is supplied sterile in an innovative, colour-coded protective cradle or cage pack.

The dedicated i-gel website (http://www.intersurgical.com/info/igel) has detailed information on the device, along with instructional videos, evidence bibliographies and downloads.

You can now read all the clinical evidence on the device on the new blog (http://igelevidence.intersurgical.com/). Collating over 250 studies, case reports and editorials, the easy-to-access database allows you to find studies by author, scenario, journal, year of publication and much more.
