Product Overview
The Thomas EMS Airway Hard Case redefines what an airway bag can do in a multi-provider ALS response. The innovation at the core of this case is the magnet-secured intubation kit in the lid: six neodymium magnets hold the kit firmly in place during transport, yet allow it to be removed in seconds for use by a second medic at a second patient—without touching Velcro or fumbling with straps. The clean exterior that results from eliminating Velcro on the outside of the case means no snagging and no degradation of the lid closure surface over time.
The interior is purpose-built for complete airway management, organized for:
- Laryngoscope handles (medium and large) and multiple blade sizes
- Syringes from 10cc to 60cc
- Two sizes of Magill forceps and guide wires
- Lockable vinyl pocket for medications, batteries, and small airways
- ET tube capacity: large clear vinyl deep pocket fits up to 20 ET tubes
- Oral and nasal pharyngeal airways in multiple sizes
Made from fluid-resistant heavy-weight vinyl with high-visibility glow-in-the-dark zipper pulls, the Airway Hard Case maintains visibility in low-light environments and withstands the repeated exposure to blood, secretions, and cleaning agents that airway equipment demands. The Thomas trademark color-coded pockets allow crews to locate specific equipment by color even under stress.
Why Choose a Hard Case for Airway Equipment?
Delicate equipment—laryngoscope blades, ETT connectors, and stylets—warrants a rigid housing that won't compress under the weight of other equipment in an ambulance compartment. The Thomas EMS Airway Hard Case provides that rigidity while remaining lighter and more compact than general-purpose hard cases. The magnetic lid system means the case can be fully opened and stood upright during use, with the intubation kit in the lid remaining accessible without full case removal from the treatment zone.
