Active
Airway Management: The sniff position is the
"gold standard" for positioning patients for laryngoscopy,
placement of laryngeal mask airways, and mask ventilating
patients. Therefore, it is ideal to have the PopitzPillows
stocked in:
- Operating Rooms
- Emergency Departments
- Code or Crash Carts --- it should be standard with the
airway instruments
- Procedural Suites, such as Invasive Radiology, MRI or
CAT Scan Units, Endoscopy Units, Surgicenters, medical office
suites
- Ambulances and Air-ambulances
- Office based surgery locations
- Any location where CPR/ACLS might be required!
- Airlines and travel organizations, hotels, large businesses,
convention centers, military organizations
- Even mouth-to-mouth breathing

Passive Airway Management:
The PopitzPillow is ideal
for use in situations where the patient is too ill to maintain
their airway or during procedural sedation, to aid the caregiver
in maintaining an unobstructed airway. Similarly, it is invaluable
during cases where regional anesthesia is being used. It affords
the anesthesia personnel a comfortable patient with a patent
airway. The PopitzPillows should be used by physicians and
nurses everywhere where there might be a concern for patient
safety and comfort. The PopitzPillows are also FDA approved
for over the counter sales for mild Obstructive Sleep Apnea
and Snoring. As they permit optimal airway patency for airway
management, so do they for sleep disordered breathing.
