Oropharyngeal Airway Insertion | Guedel | OPA | ABCDE Emergency | OSCE Guide | UKMLA | CPSA

This video demonstrates how to insert an oropharyngeal airway (OPA) in an OSCE station. OPAs are also sometimes referred to as a Guedel. The insertion of an OPA is a key skill you'll need to demonstrate in ABCDE scenarios that involve airway issues.
We also discuss indications for an oropharyngeal airway and clinically relevant anatomy. You can access our step-by-step guide alongside the video here: geekymedics.com/oropharyngeal...
