Oxygenating oropharyngeal airway devices, kits including at least such devices, and methods of using such devices. Such a device may be coupled to a host oropharyngeal airway, such as a Berman-style airway, inserted into a patient in need of airway management, uncoupled from the host airway, and used to oxygenate the patient through a lumen of the device both before and during any needed intubation. Another lumen of the device may be used to monitor end tidal carbon dioxide. A spray catheter may also be used in conjunction with the device to topicalize a patient's airway blindly. Ventilation, achieved by manipulating a bag coupled to a mask adequately sealed over the patient's nose and mouth, may be performed while one of the devices is positioned in the patient's mouth and while the patient is receiving oxygen from tubing running under the mask and attached to the device and an oxygen source.
