What color is the #5 iGel?

The #5 iGel is specifically color-coded orange to facilitate quick identification in emergency situations. The orange color designates it for use in patients who typically weigh between 25-35 kg, which is important for EMS personnel to remember when selecting airway devices for pediatric patients. This color-coding system enhances efficiency and safety by minimizing the chance of using the wrong size device based on patient weight. Each size of the iGel is distinctly color-coded to ensure that providers can rapidly determine the appropriate device for their patient population at a glance. This systematic approach is vital in high-pressure environments where quick decision-making is essential.
