ABSTRACT:
This laryngoscope blade comprises an illuminated, molded tongue retractor, wherein, as viewed by a patient, a suction conduit extends up the left side of the blade, from just short of the distal tip of the blade, to the proximal end of the blade, with means for attachment to a separate suction hose and vacuum pump. A flow of 100% oxygen is provided near the distal tip of the blade through a second conduit, smaller in diameter than the first, extending down the right side of the blade from the proximal end of the blade, with means for attachment to a separate oxygen delivery hose and oxygen source. The improved blade is uniquely shaped to facilitate endotracheal intubation, in a 100% oxygen environment, with high-volume suction immediately available, at the glottis, in the illuminated field of view.
