Intubation device consisting of a flexible tube with a distal rubber-like pouch, wherein the pouch cavity communicates with the tube on one end. The other end of the tube is connected to a pressure sensor with light indicator. When it is squeezed it will compress the volume of the chamber and it displaces the air in the tube to trigger the pressure sensor in the proximal end to turn on the light indicator. When the external pressure on the pouch is released, the light indicator is off. The intubation guide has a handle and a curved blade. The tracheal tube follows the curve of the blade held by a tab that is pulled out when the user wants to release the tube. The tip of the introducer is aligned with the tip of the blade and has a light beam directed to the tip of the blade indicating blade location. |
