Macintosh Laryngoscope F/O/I/T set/3 #1,2(78mm) and3

Clinical Application

This three-blade Macintosh set provides core blade sizes commonly used across pediatric and adult airway management. The curved Macintosh geometry is designed to engage the vallecula and lift the epiglottis indirectly, facilitating visualization of the glottic opening during direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. Including sizes #1, #2 and #3 in one set allows clinicians to select the appropriate blade for neonates/infants (#1), small children/smaller adult anatomy (#2, 78 mm), and larger pediatric or adult patients (#3) without delay during induction or emergent airway care.

Design & Configuration

The Macintosh curved profile distributes force along the tongue and vallecula, reducing need for excessive upward force and improving line-of-sight for tube placement. Blade length differences alter the reach and leverage: the included #2 (78 mm) provides a mid-range shaft length suitable for small pediatric and some adult patients. The set is configured for rapid blade exchange and storage, and the fiber-optic illumination channel (F/O) delivers concentrated light to the distal blade to enhance visualization and reduce shadows in the oropharynx. Blades are shaped to permit atraumatic insertion while providing a stable platform for advancing an endotracheal tube.

Instrument Specifications

• Pattern: Macintosh curved laryngoscope blades
• Set configuration: 3 blades — #1, #2 (78 mm), and #3
• Intended use: Direct laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation
• Illumination: Fiber-optic (F/O) light transmission integrated for distal illumination
• Reusable construction suitable for routine reprocessing

Material & Construction

Blades are manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide durability, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with standard sterilization processes. The fiber-optic illumination component transmits light to the blade tip for improved visualization without reliance on a bulb housed in the blade. Components are designed for repeated clinical use and routine reprocessing.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
