video laryngoscope

A video laryngoscope is a medical device used to help doctors see the throat and vocal cords when placing a breathing tube during procedures like surgery. Unlike traditional laryngoscopes, which require direct vision, this tool has a small camera at the end of a flexible tube. It displays a magnified image on a screen, making it easier for doctors to navigate the airway, especially in difficult cases. This technology improves safety and accuracy, helping to secure the airway more effectively and reduce the risk of complications in patients.
