Amer. Miller Conventional Laryngoscope blade 132mm, #2

Clinical Application

This straight Miller-style blade is intended for direct laryngoscopy where direct elevation of the epiglottis is required to visualize the vocal cords and facilitate endotracheal tube placement. The 132 mm length and size #2 profile make it appropriate for smaller airway anatomy where shorter insertion depth and fine distal control improve visualization and reduce soft-tissue interference.

Design & Configuration

The conventional Miller geometry features a straight shaft and a narrow distal tip designed to directly lift the epiglottis rather than relying on indirect lifting of the tongue. This configuration provides a line-of-sight view of the glottic opening in patients with anterior or compact airways and allows precise control during insertion and elevation. The blade length and curvature influence insertion depth and mechanical advantage, helping clinicians position the tip without excessive downward force.
