        [list]              AWAKE INTUBATION       [*] GlideScope video laryngoscopes provide an alternative for the patient requiring awake intubation. Whether used during the endotracheal tube placement, or used solely to evaluate the airway prior to intubation, the GlideScope video laryngoscope is a useful tool for emergency room physicians and critical care physicians when used for awake intubation. It may be particularly useful for the patient who fails the airway exam or has macroglossia.             CERVICAL SPINE IMMOBILIZATION & SPINE MANAGEMENT       [*] Safely intubate patients with c-spine injuries with GlideScopes signature hyper-angulated blade. GlideScope blades follow the natural anatomy of the area which eliminates the need to manipulate the patients head or neck into a sniffing position typically required with direct laryngoscopy.             DIFFICULT AIRWAY MANAGEMENT       [*] GlideScope video laryngoscopes are the ideal solution for intubating patients with difficult or restricted airways. From the morbidly obese to patients affected by microagnathia, GlideScope can aid in intubating the most difficult airways faster, and more effectively than direct laryngoscopy.             ENDOTRACHEAL TUBE EXCHANGE       [*] Facilitate endotracheal tube exchanges in patients. Use GlideScope to gain a clear view of the airway for a stress-free, uncomplicated tube exchange.             PEDIATRIC AIRWAY MANAGEMENT       [*] Intubate pediatric patients quickly and successfully with GlideScope’s pediatric video baton. Ranging from neonate to small child, GlideScope offers a full solution of laryngoscope tools ideal for any Operating Room, Emergency Department, Neonatal/Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and Labor & Delivery department.             ROUTINE AIRWAY MANAGEMENT       [*] When used as a primary solution for routine airways, the GlideScope video laryngoscope is associated with a greater first-attempt success rate when compared with direct laryngoscopy. In addition, the GlideScope has been found to be 99% successful for intubation after initial failure of direct laryngoscopy, helping to reduce the incidence of failed intubation.             SINGLE USE VIDEO LARYNGOSCOPES       [*]Prevention of infections has become one of the most important quality measures in every health care facility, since they are shown to be a major cause of prolonged hospital stay, increased patient morbidity and increased costs. Laryngoscopy and manipulations of the airway involve bodily fluids. GlideScope offers sterile, single-use disposable video laryngoscopy solutions to help reduce the incidence of infection and cross contamination.             TEACHING AIRWAY MANAGEMENT       [*]Use every GlideScope intubation as a teaching opportunity. With a large, full-color monitor and video output, you can monitor and coach your residents throughout each intubation. Difficult intubations can also be recorded or snap-shot for future teaching within the institution.             TRAUMA AIRWAY MANAGEMENT       [*] First responders and Emergency Medicine clinicians are often faced with treating patients who need immediate action to secure the airway. GlideScope video laryngoscopes allow for rapid intubation with high first pass success in the pre-hospital and emergency room setting of patients with or without multiple traumas.             [*] Excellent for difficult airways, convenient for routine airways               [*] Provides a consistently clear view, enabling quick intubation in unpredictable conditions              [*] Operational in seconds              [*] Optimized for demanding OR, ED, and ICU settings              [*] Reusable blades in 3 sizes—from small to morbidly obese patients              [*] Easy to use, learn, and teach              [*] Excellent for difficult airways, convenient for routine airways               [*] Provides a consistently clear view, enabling quick intubation in unpredictable conditions              [*] Operational in seconds              [*] Optimized for demanding OR, ED, and ICU settings              [*] Reusable blades in 3 sizes—from small to morbidly obese patients              [*] Easy to use, learn, and teach              [/list]
