“I think the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway is a great product. I used the one you sent me for a case of surgical treatment of traumatic (animal bite to face) vestibular stenosis. It helped maintain light pressure on my composite and full thickness grafts as well as giving the patient an excellent airway so she got a good nights’ sleep the first day of her recovery.”

“It is with great enthusiasm that I recommend the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway to anyone doing nasal, septal or turbinate procedures. The AIRWAY together with the clearing and suctioning apparatus included in the packaging have truly made the nasal surgery recovery period much more comfortable, effective and easier.”

“I have witnessed the operative insertion of the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway and observed patients in the recovery room at our surgery center. I liked what I saw. Delivering a better patient experience should be the stock and trade of every MD. Towards that end, the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway is doing a good job.”

“I have delivered anesthesia for cases in which the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway was used. I found the product to be very clever, and indeed valuable for me, as an anesthesiologist. During emergence from anesthesia, having a guaranteed AIRWAY is a safety plus. Without a reliable AIRWAY, patients are apt to struggle and be combative while emerging from the anesthetic. In addition, having a clear and direct route to the pharynx for suctioning allows an anesthesiologist to have fewer grey hairs.”

“Anesthesiologists are often confronted with difficult challenges to support and maintain the airway passages in post nasal surgery patients. The new and innovative approach with the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway allows patients to have a clear and open passage to breath after surgery. As an anesthesiologist I can rest easier because I can suction directly through the nasal AIRWAY and clear any blood and blood clots from the patient’s airway. Equally important, I am able to maintain a patent airway and provide supplemental oxygen, especially at the end of the nasal operation and emergence from anesthesia. Simply, patient comfort and acceptance, is enough reason for surgeons to start using the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway on every nasal operation.”

I am pleased to report my impressions of the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway. Last week, I had a case that was rather challenging. A young man with a severely battered nose underwent reconstructive nasal surgery. There was more bleeding than usual. In the recovery room, despite the heavier bloody nasal drainage, the nasal AIRWAY maintained its patency and provided the patient a satisfactory airway. Attributable to that, the patient did not exhibit the usual anxiety and restlessness that he might were his nose completely blocked.
It was necessary to return the patient to the operating room for control of the bleeding. The nose was very aggressively packed to control the bleeding, which was coming from several sites. Once again, the nasal AIRWAY performed excellently in the immediate post-operative period.
What I appreciated was that the AIRWAY provided easy, and without any patient cooperation, access into the pharynx to suction the blood that had accumulated at the end of the procedure.
I would highly recommend, to any and all nasal surgeons, that they employ this device routinely in all their nasal and sinus surgery cases. They will have the eternal appreciation of their anesthesiologist.”

“I was a bit skeptical at first that something as simple in design and concept as the Reltok Clear-Flo Nasal Airway could be as effective as claimed. After having used the AIRWAY on a dozen patients, I can attest to the tremendously positive impact it has on the post-operative experience for patients undergoing septorhinoplasty. Placing them is straightforward, and instead of mouth-breathing for a week, patients have been pleasantly surprised to be able to breathe through their nose immediately. Exceeding a patient’s expectations is my goal, and the AIRWAY now plays a role in achieving that aim.”

“I really like it…nice and soft without being too compressible. I like that it comes with an instruction sheet for patients and the irrigation syringe.”
