Dr. Muhammed Aslam Nasir

Inventor of i-gel® (Human) & v-gel® (Veterinary) • President, Docsinnovent Ltd

"Just breathing can be such a luxury at times. Our purpose was simple yet profound: design an airway that mirrors human and animal anatomy so naturally that inflation, pressure trauma, and tissue ischemia become obsolete."

Dr. Muhammed Aslam Nasir is a world-renowned consultant anaesthesiologist, medical innovator, and the pioneering inventor behind the i-gel® human supraglottic airway device and the v-gel® species-specific veterinary airway system. With decades of frontline clinical experience in anaesthesia and critical care, Dr. Nasir revolutionized supraglottic airway management by discovering that an anatomically molded thermoplastic elastomer could replace traumatic inflatable balloons. In 2016, Dr. Nasir was awarded the prestigious Macewen Medal by the Difficult Airway Society (DAS, UK) for outstanding and lasting contribution to airway management. He also serves as President of Docsinnovent Ltd and is the founder of Light4Life, a philanthropic foundation providing emergency disaster relief and education.

As an NHS consultant anaesthesiologist, Dr. Nasir witnessed first-hand the clinical complications caused by inflatable balloon cuffs—including tracheal tear injuries, mucosal ischemia, recurrent nerve damage, and post-operative throat pain. His revolutionary discovery that a non-inflatable anatomical thermoplastic elastomer (SEBS) could naturally mirror the human larynx led to the birth of the i-gel®, now used in over 100 countries and manufactured globally by Intersurgical Ltd.

Recognizing the high mortality and tracheal tears suffered by companion animals (especially cats and rabbits) under general anaesthesia, Dr. Nasir subsequently invented and patented the v-gel®, founding Docsinnovent Ltd to deliver the world's first species-specific supraglottic devices.
