<p>The invention provides laryngoscopy forceps comprising a pivot point 11, having a pivot axis extending through the pivot point; and wherein the portion of the forceps distal of the pivot point is bent and the tips 13 are at an angle to a plane normal to the pivot axis. The forceps may be provided with a light source (51 figs 5-10) which may be detachable or embedded, thereby making it easier to visualize a patient's airway. The tips 13 may be shaped in a loop or have rounded corrugations. The shape of the forceps is adapted to follow the anatomical shape of the human airway, thereby making the forceps easier to use.</p> |
