Amer.Miller Laryngoscope blade F/O Fix/T 80mm, #1

Clinical Application

This straight Miller pattern blade is sized for neonatal and small infant airway management. Its narrow, rigid profile is intended for direct elevation of the epiglottis to expose the glottic inlet during endotracheal intubation and controlled laryngoscopy. The short 80 mm length and size #1 geometry make it suitable for operating rooms, emergency departments, neonatal intensive care units, and ambulatory surgery settings where precise visualization of a small airway is required.

Design & Configuration

The straight Miller geometry provides a low-profile, narrow footprint that minimizes obstruction of the oral cavity and enables direct lifting of the epiglottis rather than relying on indirect displacement. Integrated fiber-optic illumination delivers a focused light path along the blade to improve visualization of the glottis in small airways, reducing the need for separate light sources. The fixed configuration reduces assembly steps and potential loose connections at the bedside, supporting rapid, reliable set-up during urgent airway management.

Instrument Specifications

• Pattern: Miller (straight) laryngoscope blade
• Size: #1; nominal length 80 mm
• Illumination: Integrated fiber-optic (F/O)
• Intended use: Direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation for neonates/infants
• Construction: Reusable rigid blade

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel for durability and repeated use. The illumination system uses an integrated fiber-optic light channel to transmit light from a compatible handle or light source to the blade tip, improving visualization without increasing blade bulk. The fixed, one-piece blade design reduces potential points of mechanical failure and facilitates cleaning and inspection between cases.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.

Brand Comparison

Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
