The i-gel® is a second generation supraglottic airway device made from a thermoplastic elastomer, which makes it PVC and latex-free. It features a non-inflating cuff, an integrated bite block and a gastric channel/ drain tube (the size 1 neonatal i-gel does not have this gastric channel). It does not have aperture bars  like the LMA Unique®. It does feature an epiglottic rest/ ridge just above the distal opening. Another distinctive feature is the buccal cavity stablizer, which refers to the widened portion of the body, designed to aid insertion and prevent unintended rotation once placed. A horizontal bar indicator at the proximal end gives a clue towards the optimal insertion depth.
