ABSTRACT:
A laryngoscope blade is detachably connectable to a hook-on-type laryngoscope handle in conformity with International Standard ISO-7376-1 or ISO 7376-3. The blade comprises a rigid housing having a lower, tongue-engaging flange section extending along the length thereof, a proximal base end provided with hooks or fittings for engaging complementary handle hooks or fittings in compliance with ISO-7376-1 and ISO-7376-3, the proximal base being provided with a hook or flange of such length that the hook or flange comes into contact with the top of the handle such that the blade is prevented from rotating downwardly to such a degree that the distal end of the blade comes into contact with the side of the handle and enabling the blade to be elevated into an operating position to maintain conductivity for powering a light source for the blade.
