Single-Use Laryngoscope Blade Reliable visualization of the vocal cords is a critical requirement for successful intubation. However, research shows repeated reprocessing of reusable fiber optic laryngoscope blades can degrade light intensity and potentially reduce vocal cord visualization.1,2 Using the Rüsch® Polaris™ Single-Use Laryngoscope Blade from Teleflex may avoid the reliability issues attributed to repeated reprocessing.1,3 The fiber optic cable of the Polaris Laryngoscope Blade provides focused light transmission and minimizes light scatter to deliver reliable visualization when you need it most. Its durable, metal construction offers the performance and feel of a reusable laryngoscope blade. ™ The Bright Light of Rüsch® Single-Use Laryngoscopes A recent benchtop assessment found that the Rüsch® Polaris™ Laryngoscope Blade paired with the Rüsch® DispoLED™ Laryngoscope Handle offers superior mean initial light output compared with other leading single-use laryngoscope systems (Figure 1).4 Figure 1.
