Welch Allyn Standard Laryngoscope Blade- English MacIntosh- Size 1. MFID: 69241Welch Allyn E-MacIntosh Laryngoscopes: E-MacIntosh, or "English"-MacIntosh, blades are the most popular style of laryngoscope blade outside of the United States. The design, although based heavily upon the original MacIntosh blade, differs in several aspects. First, the curve of the E-Macs is more continuous from the proximal to distal end. This improves lifting mechanics. Second, overall length is increased to help assist intubation in patients with an anterior larynx. Finally, the profile or height of the instrument had been reduced for easier intubation in patients with limited oral access.
Features:- The one-piece construction of Welch Allyn blades eliminates the potentially weaker soldered or brazed joint
- Lightweight. Reduced handle and blade weight for improved balance and maneuverability facilitates even the most difficult intubations
- Convertible. Blades easily convert from lamp to fiber optic illumination. Makes upgrading economical
- Repairable. Replace deteriorating light pathways for a fraction of the cost of a replacement blade
- Improved design. Reduced proximal blade height assists in intubating patients with limited oral access
- One-piece construction. Single-piece stainless steel blade ensures blade integrity (no soldered joints) and minimizes corrosion
- Halogen HPX illumination. Our fiber optic blades feature Halogen HPX lamps for true tissue color, providing more than 30% brighter, whiter light than traditional halogen lamps
