Problems solved by technology

[0007] - Laryngoscopy with a flexible fiberscope: This procedure involves inserting a fiberscope into the airway and using the fiberscope as a guide over which the endotracheal tube slides to complete the intubation; this procedure is very safe, and overcomes the limitations of direct laryngoscopy, but requires very experienced personnel and expensive devices (fiberscopes), which are not always available

Embodiment Construction

[0025] refer to figure 1 , the numeral 10 in its entirety designates a system for orotracheal intubation of a patient. System 10 includes a laryngoscope 12 configured to be inserted into a patient's trachea by passing through the mouth and larynx. The laryngoscope 12 is configured to guide insertion of the endotracheal tube 14 .

[0026] The laryngoscope 12 includes a base 16 and a tubular body 18 having a generally J-shape. The tubular body 18 may be removably secured to the base 16 .

[0027] The base 16 carries a plurality of actuators 20 therein. The actuators may be electric actuators powered by the battery 22 and controlled by the electronic control unit 24 . Alternatively, the actuator 20 may be a mechanical actuator.

[0028] The electronic control unit 24 may be connected to an interface unit 26, which is connected to a motion control device 28 external to the base 16, the motion control device including, for example, a joystick. The interface unit 26 may also b...

Abstract

A laryngoscope for oral tracheal intubation includes a tubular body (18) that serves as a guide for an endotracheal tube (14). The tubular body (18) has an adjustable head (42) that is inserted through the mouth into the pharynx along the curvature of the anatomical structure until it reaches the larynx and vocal cord. The head (42) may be equipped with a lighting and display system that may be connected to an external screen. The head (42) may be oriented by the actuator (20) such that it may point to the inlet of the airway.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to the field of medical devices. [0002] More specifically, the present invention relates to a laryngoscope for orotracheal intubation. Background technique [0003] Orotracheal intubation involves placing an endotracheal tube in the airway to allow mechanical or manual ventilation of the patient and to protect the lungs from the backflow of gastric material or material from the upper airway. [0004] In the current state of the art, an endotracheal tube is placed in the patient's trachea by means of one of the following operations: [0005] - Direct laryngoscopy: use of a laryngoscope (eg, Macintosh laryngoscope) to elevate anatomical structures (pharynx, larynx) and allow visualization of the vocal cords and access to the airway for endotracheal tube insertion; direct laryngoscopy may result in edema (so swelling) and obstructing the airway; direct laryngoscope intubation must be performed by a particularly ...
