Fiber Optic Laryngoscopes
Fiber optic laryngoscopes give a bright, cool light at the blade tip for safe and confident intubation. The light comes from the handle and travels through a fiber bundle in the blade, so there is no bulb in the blade to fail or to clean around (codes SI-012801 to SI-012821).
Where they are used
They are used in operating theatres, intensive care units, emergency departments, ambulances and neonatal units for routine and emergency intubation.
Our range
- Macintosh sets and blades: Fig. 0 (babies) to Fig. 4 (large adults)
- Miller sets and blades: from neonates to adults
- Fiber optic handles
Material and finish
Blades and handles are made from stainless steel and chrome plated brass. Fiber optic blades carry the light through a sealed glass fiber bundle, so there is no bulb in the blade. Conventional blades carry a small bulb near the tip. Both are made to the standard hook-on fitting.
How to choose
Macintosh curved blades suit most adults and older children. Miller straight blades are often preferred for babies and infants. A set of four blades covers most adult practice. Choose the fiber optic system for better light and easier cleaning.
Quality control
Every blade and handle is checked for light output, a secure blade-to-handle connection, and a smooth, polished finish. Fiber optic bundles are inspected for even light. Sets are checked to make sure every blade, handle and spare lamp is included.
Building a complete airway kit
Most hospitals keep laryngoscopes in several places: theatres, ICU, the emergency department, labour ward and ambulances. Each location needs a working handle, a full range of blade sizes, spare batteries and spare lamps. Tell us how many locations you are equipping and the patients you treat, and we will suggest the handles, blades and sets you need. Keeping one system across the hospital means any blade fits any handle.
Care and sterilization
Take the batteries out of the handle before cleaning. Blades can be washed and steam sterilized. Wipe and disinfect handles according to your hospital policy. Check the light and the blade connection before every use.
