The term "normal retirement age" is somewhat misleading. It is not the age at which members normally retire. There are many pension plans where only a small percentage of the workforce will work up to the "normal" retirement age of 65. 4, record 3, English, - normal%20retirement%20age

L'expression «âge de la retraite normale» est quelque peu équivoque, car il ne s'agit pas de l'âge auquel les participants prennent normalement leur retraite.

Also known as trumpets, nasopharyngeal airways are inserted through one nostril to create an air passage between the nose and the nasopharynx. The NPA is preferred to the OPA in conscious patients because it is better tolerated and less likely to induce a gag reflex. ... While nasopharyngeal airways are better tolerated than oropharyngeal airways in awake or lightly anesthetized patients, they are contraindicated in patients who are anticoagulated, patients with basilar skull fractures, patients with nasal infections and deformities as well as in children (because of risk of epistaxis). 3, record 8, English, - nasopharyngeal%20tube
