Organized Airway Protection for Advanced Life Support The R&B Fabrications Intubation Kit is a specialized roll-up bag designed to protect and organize critical airway management tools. Built for paramedics and anesthesia providers who require instant access to laryngoscopes and endotracheal tubes, this kit eliminates the clutter of "dump bags" by providing a dedicated slot for every blade, handle, and airway adjunct.
Key Features
- Massive Organization Capacity: Features 14 individual slot pockets specifically sized to hold laryngoscope handles (adult/pediatric) and a full range of Mac and Miller blades.
- Airway Retention Loops: Equipped with 17 elastic loops designed to secure oral airways (OPA), nasal airways (NPA), or Magill forceps in a vertical, ready-to-grab orientation.
- Bulk Storage: Includes four large pockets for packaged items such as endotracheal tubes (ETT), stylets, lubrication packets, and syringe kits.
- Protective Design: A full-length internal flap folds over the equipment rows, preventing metal-on-metal contact and keeping blades secure when the kit is rolled up.
- Compact Roll-Up Profile: The entire kit rolls into a tight, manageable bundle (14" width) that fits easily inside larger jump bags or airway backpacks.
- High-Visibility: Constructed from safety orange fabric to ensure the kit is never lost on a chaotic scene or inside a dark ambulance cabinet.
Why It Matters In a "can't intubate, can't oxygenate" scenario, seconds matter. Fumbling through a messy bag for a Size 3 blade or a 10cc syringe costs time you don't have. This kit forces organization, ensuring that when you unroll it, your tools are presented in a logical, visual hierarchy—blades on one side, tubes on the other—allowing for a smooth, stress-free intubation workflow.
How to Use Loading: Place your laryngoscope handles and blades in the 14 slot pockets (blades detached). Slide OPAs/NPAs into the elastic loops. Store packaged ETTs and stylets in the four large pockets. Deployment: Unbuckle the retention strap and unroll the kit onto a flat surface (patient chest or airway table). Flip the protective flap back to reveal the tools. Storage: Fold the flap down, roll the kit tight, and secure it. Place it in the main compartment of your ALS bag.
Technical Overview The kit measures 14" x 29" when fully open, providing a large sterile-like workspace. It weighs only 12 oz empty, adding negligible weight to your gear. The roll-up design allows it to compress based on how much gear is inside, unlike rigid hard cases.
