Magill Catheter Introducing Fcps 25cm

Clinical Application

Used primarily in anesthesia, emergency medicine, and ENT procedures to introduce and guide flexible catheters and tubes under direct visualization. Common applications include nasogastric and nasotracheal tube placement during laryngoscopy, controlled advancement of feeding or suction catheters, and fine manipulation of foreign bodies or small items in the oropharynx. The instrument enables precise placement while minimizing contact between the operator’s fingers and the airway or sterile devices.

Design & Configuration

The angulated, slender shaft and distal jaw geometry allow access into the oropharynx and hypopharynx while a laryngoscope is in place. The 25 cm length provides adequate reach for adult procedures without excessive shaft bulk that can obstruct the view. Slender, atraumatic jaws permit secure control of soft, flexible catheters and tubes without kinking or crushing the lumen, allowing the operator to steer the device into the desired conduit with controlled wrist movements.
