Laryngoscope handle, single-use

Definition

A clean, non-sterile, hand-held segment of a laryngoscope (i.e., non-endoscopic rigid type) designed to manipulate the laryngoscope blade during airway access and intubation. It is a cylindrical device that contains batteries/light-emitting cells to provide the energy/light for the airway-illuminating feature of the laryngoscope (e.g., small light bulb, fibreoptics), and can accommodate various blades. It is available in various sizes and may be magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatible. This is a single-use device; the batteries/light-emitting cells are intended to be removed for reuse before the device is discarded.
