An oropharyngeal airway is the first airway device that all levels of EMS providers are taught to use. As we advance in our airway skills, "insert an oropharyngeal airway" eventually becomes a simple line on a testing sheet. However, the oropharyngeal airway (OPA) has a rich history that many providers are never taught. Although many people focus on advanced airways and their ever-evolving designs, let's take a few minutes and look at this time-tested basic airway.The first OPA was made of metal...
