Miller Laryngoscope

The Miller laryngoscope is a medical instrument used by doctors, particularly anesthesiologists, to help visualize the vocal cords and airway during intubation. It features a curved blade that aids in lifting the tongue and providing a clear view of the throat when inserting a breathing tube. This tool is essential for safely securing the airway in patients who are unconscious or unable to breathe on their own. The design allows for more direct access to the larynx, making it particularly useful in certain clinical situations. Overall, it plays a critical role in emergency and surgical care.
