Video Laryngoscopes in Sierra Leone
Available Video Laryngoscopes Models

A video laryngoscope is an advanced medical device designed to provide a clear, magnified, and real-time view of a patient's airway during intubation. Unlike traditional laryngoscopes which offer a direct line of sight, video laryngoscopes utilize a camera and a display screen. This technology significantly enhances visualization, allowing healthcare professionals to navigate the complexities of the airway with greater precision and confidence.

The core function of a video laryngoscope is to illuminate and capture images of the vocal cords and glottis, transmitting this visual data to a monitor. This facilitates the accurate placement of an endotracheal tube (ETT), ensuring it enters the trachea (windpipe) rather than the esophagus (food pipe). This process, known as endotracheal intubation, is critical for securing a patient's airway, enabling mechanical ventilation, and administering anesthesia.

In Sierra Leone, the adoption of video laryngoscopes offers a significant advantage in various clinical settings. Their key applications include:
