Miller blade

A Miller blade is a medical tool used by healthcare providers to help open a patient's mouth and keep the airway clear during procedures like intubation. It is a slender, curved or straight device that is gently inserted into the mouth to lift the tongue and protect the airway, making it easier to see the vocal cords and insert a breathing tube. Its design allows for quick, effective access to the windpipe, especially in emergency situations, ensuring that patients can breathe properly when they cannot do so on their own.
