Flexible Tip Conventional Laryngoscope blade Mac#5 set/1

Clinical Application

Designed for direct laryngoscopy during airway management in adult and large patients, this Mac #5 flexible-tip blade provides controlled manipulation of the distal tip to improve visualization of the glottic opening. The articulating tip aids in elevating or directly lifting the epiglottis when vallecular placement alone does not provide an adequate view, making it helpful in routine anesthesia induction, emergency airway interventions, and cases with limited neck mobility or challenging anatomy.

Design & Configuration

The Macintosh curved profile is intended for placement in the vallecula to achieve indirect elevation of the epiglottis. The flexible or articulated distal tip allows incremental adjustment at the blade tip to enhance glottic exposure without changing blade pattern mid-procedure. A size #5 geometry provides additional reach and blade surface optimized for larger adults. The conventional blade geometry facilitates familiar ergonomics for clinicians trained in standard Macintosh technique while offering the added control of a movable tip for difficult exposures.
