Kits come complete with all six sizes in a plastic bag or box.Features:• Reinforced bite block prevents airway collapse• Disposable for single-patient use• Non-sterile, non-toxic polyethylene• Gas/cold sterilizable• Not made with natural rubber latex• Made in the U.S.A.Note: Airway will stay in place without securement by keeping patient’s head in a tilted position.
