FYI: Verathon's newest video laryngoscopes feature light-control and
ambient-light-reduction functions that are designed to optimize
image brightness at the vocal cords and reduce nonessential light.
Disposable blades provide a larger viewing channel than previous
GlideScope Mac-style blades, which improves direct views for teach-
ing and using direct laryngoscopy technique, says the company. The
new blades, which come in 6 sizes ranging from neonate to large
adults, are also 30% wider, to help improve tongue control during
intubation.
