Airtraq

The Airtraq is a unique, optical laryngoscope that is ideal for use in difficult intubations. The Airtraq allows quick insertion of an ET tube and is particularly suitable for pre-hospital emergency use when a spinal injury is suspected as no hyperextension of the neck is required. An additional feature of the Airtraq is that a camera can be fitted to the device to allow easy viewing on a monitor.

The Airtraq is an anatomically shaped laryngoscope with two separate channels:

The optical channel: contains a high definition optical system

The guiding channel: holds the endotracheal tube (ETT) and guides it through the vocal cords

Features:-
>> It has a built-in Anti-fog system and a low temperature light
>> It is a SINGLE USE device
>> Set up time between 30-60 seconds
>> It can be used with any standard endotracheal tube
