Fiberoptic-Assisted Orotracheal Intubation Devices T2 Emergency Medicine Procedures, 2e YR 2013 FD 2013 PB The McGraw-Hill Companies PP New York, NY SN 978-0-07-161352-1 LK accessemergencymedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=57701570 RD 2024/11/11 AB Recent years have seen a rapid expansion in optical devices used to aid in endotracheal intubation. All of these devices use fiberoptics that begin near the distal end and transmit an image to be viewed at the proximal end. Many of these devices are variations on the “optical stylet” concept. They consist of an eyepiece or other viewing mechanism attached to a stylet of varying degrees of flexibility. A standard endotracheal tube can be jacketed onto each device. The stylet can then be used as an adjunct to standard endotracheal intubation or as a stand-alone device.
