Ambu, a Ballerup, Denmark company well known among anesthesiologists, has just released a single use intubating videoscope. The device, we think, will be particularly useful to those anesthesiologists that are on the go: performing anesthesia in ambulatory centers, private offices, GI suits, etc. The EMR personnel, with their hands always in body fluids, might also enjoy a clean scope and a nice view of the vocal cords.
Features of the aScope:
Lightweight ergonomic handle design for enhanced intubation comfort that fits small as well as large hands. The intuitive handle design gives enhanced comfort for health care professionals. Camera technology instead of fiberoptic bundle technology for robustness. Endotracheal tube retention rings for a stabile and secure parking. Anaesthetic channel with both a swivel for flexibility and a luer-lock for safe connection. No new operation techniques to use the new Ambu® aScope™. It is easy and uncomplicated. Packaged sterile and ready for use after connection with Ambu® aScope™ Monitor. Significantly lower start up investment. Single patient use only.
