Laryngeal Mirror w/o handle 28mm, Fig.9

Clinical Application

Designed for indirect laryngoscopy and routine ENT examination, this 28 mm mirror head provides a reliable reflective surface for visualizing the oropharynx, hypopharynx and laryngeal inlet. It is used during preoperative assessment, bedside airway evaluation, vocal cord inspection and foreign body localization when direct line-of-sight is limited. In clinical use the mirror is commonly warmed briefly to reduce condensation and used in conjunction with a tongue depressor or compatible handle to position and stabilize the view.

Design & Configuration

The Fig.9 pattern is a standard laryngeal mirror style; the 28 mm circular head balances field of view and intraoral access, offering a larger reflective area than smaller heads while remaining maneuverable in the oral cavity. Supplied without a handle, the mirror head allows facilities to fit their preferred reusable or disposable handle systems and simplifies inventory management by stocking heads and handles separately. The low-profile frame supports consistent positioning during indirect visualization.
