First launched in 2007, the IGEL has since become a standard tool in anesthesia and resuscitation worldwide, reflecting a major advancement in airway management technology. When asking "what is an IGEL considered?" the definitive answer is a second-generation supraglottic airway (SGA) device, known for its unique non-inflatable cuff and ease of insertion.

In the United States, the prevalence of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders ranges from 0.25% to 0.64% [1.6.1, 1.6.6]. For these individuals, the terms "second-generation" and "atypical" are often used interchangeably when discussing medications, but **are all 2nd gen antipsychotics atypical**? For practical purposes, yes.
