ANAESTHETIC AND RESPIRATORY EQUIPMENT - OROPHARYNGEAL AIRWAYS (FIRST REVISION) (ISO 5364:2008, IDT)
This Malaysian Standard specifies requirements for oropharyngeal airways of plastics materials and/or rubber, including those with a reinforcement insert made of plastics materials and/or metal.
This standard is not applicable to metal oropharyngeal airways, nor to requirements concerning flammability of oropharyngeal airways.
Flammability of oropharyngeal airways, for example if flammable anaesthetics, electrosurgical units or lasersare used, is a well-recognized hazard. It is addressed by appropriate clinical management, which is outside the scope of this standard.
This standard is not applicable to supralaryngeal airways without an internal, integral sealing mechanism.
