We are going to be using I Gels, just wondering what is the most used sizes? We are going to carry all the sizes, but I would like to have more on hand of the popular sizes.
Seems pretty likely that for the past majority of services that the adult (3/4/5) sizes are going to get used a whole lot more than the pediatric backup airways.Ummmm...how about you keep 1-2 of each size in stock on the truck and then 1-2 in back stock (or more depending on # of trucks and # of calls your service has) at the station to replenish when used. After a few months or even a year you might have statistics on which ones get used more often in YOUR service area and may increase par levels at that time.
I place them almost daily and IME sizes 4 & 5 will fit probably 90% of the adult population. I probably use more 5’s than anything. They are fairly forgiving in terms of sizing.
