Pediatric Device for Induction to Anesthesia (PeDIA)

The Pediatric Device for Induction to Anesthesia, or PeDIA, is a balloon that attaches to the end of the anesthesia circuit to deliver anesthesic gas to a pediatric patient. This balloon has a whistle on the end so when the patient blows into it, it creates a fun high pitched sound. The design of this device is to give an alternative to a mask that could be frightening to a small child.

It is latex-free and single patient use.
