Laryngoscopes
Laryngoscopes
Laryngoscopy is the endoscopy of the throat, which allows examination of the larynx using a laryngoscope. The laryngoscopes are used to facilitate tracheal intubation during general anesthesia or cardiopulmonary emergencies.
Laryngoscopes are made up of two parts: a blade and a handle. There are two common shapes for laryngoscope blades: curved and straight. Macintosh blades are the most commonly used curved blades. Miller blades are the most commonly used straight blades. Laryngoscope blades contain either a standard or fiber optic light source. Fiber optic blades provide brighter light output than standard blades. Propper reusable laryngoscope blades feature a large-diameter integrated fiber optic bundle, which allows for increased light transmission. The integrated design allows for easy cleaning and sterilization using Steam, EO, and Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide. Propper Macintosh Blades are available in sizes 1-5. Propper Miller Blades are available in sizes 0–4. They are made of select quality 304 Stainless Steel with flawless pinhole free surface finish.
Laryngoscope handles are available in a variety of sizes. Propper handles are available in three sizes, stubby, AA and C. Laryngoscope handles contain batteries and a light bulb. They are available with xenon light bulbs or Superlume® LED light bulbs. Superlume® handles feature the brightest output of any current handle. With a high color temperature, allowing for ideal conditions during intubation.
All Propper Manufacturing Company blades and handles are green system compliant.
