Guedel Neagus Laryngoscope blade F/O Int/T 111mm, #3

Clinical Application

This blade is designed to facilitate direct laryngoscopy for endotracheal intubation and airway management. Size #3 and a 111 mm working length make it suitable for many adult patients and situations where standard adult blade geometry is indicated. The integrated fiber-optic illumination improves distal illumination, helping clinicians obtain a clear view of the oropharynx and glottic opening during routine and technically challenging intubations.

Design & Configuration

The blade incorporates an internal fiber-optic light channel (F/O Int/T) routed to the distal region to reduce shadowing and focus illumination where visualization is most critical. The blade geometry is configured to permit standard exposure maneuvers used in direct laryngoscopy, allowing clinicians to position the tip for vallecular placement or to lift the epiglottis as clinically indicated. The 111 mm length provides adequate reach for adult anatomy while maintaining control and tactile feedback at the proximal handle interface.
