MULTI-ANGLE VIEWING FIBREOPTIC LARYNGOSCOPE

摘要

The laryngoscope (1) of the present invention can be used in complicated as well as straight forward cases where the said laryngoscope (1) comprises: a handle (2) which is of hollow cylindrical tube to house the flexible pipe control means and the upper section of the flexible pipe therein; a blade (3) attached to the bottom end of the handle; the said blade is shaped to elevate the epiglottis and to expose the glottic opening of the patient; said flexible pipe (4) extending from the handle to the blade; characterised in that said flexible pipe is comprised of a viewing means (4a), lighting means (4b) and an insertion tube (4c). There is an eyepiece (5) at the top end of the handle. The other end of the flexible pipe can be moved at up/down and left/right directions. The tip of the flexible pipe is spaced apart from the blade, a light source is separately fed through the lighting portion (6) to brighten the pathway. The insertion tube is used for threading a tracheal guide through it.
