ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an instrument for keeping clear the upper respiratory passages and for performing intubations, in which a tube which is to be inserted may have its distal extremity moved as far as into the windpipe via a passage acting as a guide. The passage is constructed as a channel extending within the instrument shaft, whereas the distal instrument extremity comprises a head before which terminates the channel and which is intended to be placed in contact against the larynx upon inserting the instrument. The instrument head acting as a stop will thus limit the maximum depth of insertion.
