Clinical Application
This spare blade insert is intended to restore the cutting/visual profile and illumination of a Wisconsin‑pattern laryngoscope used for direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. It allows ORs, anesthesia teams, and procedural suites to replace a damaged or worn insert quickly to maintain reliable glottic exposure and light transmission during airway management.
Design & Configuration
The insert follows the Wisconsin blade geometry and is sized as a #2, 90 mm insert. The form factor preserves the original blade curvature and leading edge that clinicians rely on for tongue displacement and epiglottic exposure. Integrated fiber‑optic illumination (F/O/I) provides a continuous light path along the blade, improving visualization of the laryngeal inlet and facilitating atraumatic intubation when assembled with the appropriate handle and light source.
Instrument Specifications
- Pattern: Wisconsin laryngoscope insert, #2
- Length: 90 mm
- Illumination: Fiber‑optic compatible insert with integrated light channel
- Intended use: Replacement insert for direct laryngoscopy / intubation
- Construction: Reusable replacement component
Material & Construction
Constructed in stainless steel to maintain blade rigidity and a smooth, reprocessable surface. The insert incorporates a fiber‑optic light channel to couple with the laryngoscope's illumination system and restore consistent lighting along the blade when installed. The design supports standard cleaning and sterilization protocols for reusable airway instruments; inspect fiber‑optic integrity and light transmission during reprocessing and prior to clinical use.
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.
