This malleable introducer is a big improvement on what is a great second-line airway technique.

You can put it in first when passing a tube proves initially difficult, and then just slide the tube in over the top of the bougie.

It is a great technique for those tough intubations when you can see the epiglottis but can’t get a decent angle for passing the tube under it. 

It is easy to pre-load the tube onto the bougie, with just enough sticking out to provide that narrow yet firm advantage.

The SunMed Malleable Introducer or bougie, is the first one built to use exactly that way.

It provides firm directional control with a stopper to hold the tube in place, right where it should be.

ET tube not included.
