Embodiment Construction

[0075] As described in more detail below, an ETT delivery system is provided for improved ETT positioning and patient cannulation. In particular, various methods and systems for delivering ETT for cannulation are provided. In one example embodiment, and as described below, an ETT delivery system is disclosed. The ETT delivery system may include a rocker arm configured to rotate about an axis and a rail system for guiding insertion of the ETT. The rail system may further include a rail having one or more rails configured to at least partially define motion of the rocker arm. Additionally, a videolaryngoscope blade may be attached to the guide rail, and the drive down mechanism may be configured to cause motion of the rocker arm.

[0076] As another aspect, an ETT delivery system is provided that includes a rail system for prepositioning an ETT within an airway. The system may further include a blade connected to the rail system and a positioner operably connected to the rail...

Abstract

Various methods and systems for delivery of an ETT for intubation are provided. In one example, an ETT delivery system includes a rail system for guiding insertion of an ETT and at least partially defining the motion of the ETT. The ETT delivery system further may include a video laryngoscope blade coupled to the rail system and a delivery mechanism. In some examples, the ETT delivery system further includes a positioner configured to adjust the motion of the ETT. As a further example, the ETT delivery system may include a swing arm and a guide rail to at least partially define the motion of the swing arm. Further, a drive-down mechanism may effect motion of the swing arm. As another embodiment, a rail system, a disposable blade and a positioner may be provided. Further, a delivery mechanism may be operatively linked with the integrated rail system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to medical devices, and more particularly to intubation delivery systems and methods. Background technique [0002] Some medical procedures are invasive and potentially dangerous, although they are necessary life-saving procedures. Intubation, in particular endotracheal intubation, is commonly performed in various medical situations, for example when general anesthesia is applied, in a coma, and the like. Endotracheal intubation involves placing or inserting an endotracheal tube (ETT) into a patient's windpipe to protect the patient's airway and provide a method of mechanical ventilation. Delay or misplacement of the endotracheal tube, for example, into the esophagus, may result in permanent neurological damage or death. Misplacement of the ETT may impair airway protection or cause hypoventilation. Therefore, it is necessary to intubate the patient quickly and position the ETT correctly when a medical situation arises. ...
