“It costs less than most airway courses!”Dr MLC ,
– then i question whether the aim of the airway course is to teach or make money
still close to 4 x more expensive than, the gold standard laryngoscope
until it is proven by time & non biased studies, it’s a toy and especially so if, it doesn’t change outcomes
the blade is too short
seems to be at wrong angle
also distance from handle to blade seems too long, more cumbersome for accuracy
and the guiding part of the blade is also limiting
and this is in a more reasonably priced VL
also see where you guys are actually holding this thing, at the junction of the blade and the handle, this is odd and an unstable position and not logical ergonomically
as for the picture quality in sunlight, it’s mediocre, right in the middle, where you focus, it looks like a laerdel bag but can barely tell
these limitations are obvious even at a distance and i have never held one of these devices, and before you guys hang your hat on this comment
i’ve held the gold standard cheap efficient time-proven laryngoscope plenty,
and it is these basic attritubutes that keep it as the gold standard, you wanna replace it, fine, it’s attributes will need to be improved on
if i could see the epiglottis, i or anyone with simple practise, could intubate
i hear that’s called epiglottoscopy or some other brand name nowadays,
back in the day was also called common sense which costs… nothing
but thanks for the review, evidence and the insight you provided
cheers
gurus expand on an existing body of knowledge, that’s science
ps, sort of hope my airwayjedi expert sees this, so i can see what-
she thinks
