v-gel®ADVANCED for cats gives a high performance alternative to using endotracheal tubes. Located in the pharynx, a secure airway seal is obtained through the combination of a gel-like material with design contours that mirror the anatomical airway structures of the cat. This delivers a clear and safe airway in less than 4 seconds and avoids patient trauma
The v-gel®, once sited securely in the pharynx, allows lateral movement of the device, giving the user good access around the mouth for routine dental procedures.
