Wie das McGrath Videolaryngoskop das Ansteckungsrisiko minimiert

How the McGrath video laryngoscope minimizes the risk of infection

Videolaryngoscopy supports successful intubation attempts. Research clearly shows that video laryngoscopy can prevent physician exposure to pathogens, thereby improving physician safety. Current guidelines therefore recommend that physicians should take precautions during airway management to effectively protect themselves from pathogens.

McGrath® Videolaryngoscope as a COVID19 protective measure

Infection prevention and control of droplet-borne pathogens is becoming increasingly important during surgical procedures in the operating room. While personal protective equipment plays a key role in staff safety, it is only one part of the equation.

Increasing the distance to the patient is crucial for your safety. Traditional laryngoscopy, however, requires you to get much closer to the patient than you would like in order to see the vocal cords. However, there are options that allow you to keep enough distance during direct laryngoscopy. Therefore, current guidelines urge the use of video laryngoscopes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Video laryngoscopy allows the appropriate distance between doctor and patient recommended in the guidelines.

Disposable spatulas minimize the risk of infection

In addition, the McGrath® video laryngoscope disposable blades are used, which are modeled on those of the direct laryngoscope blades. This complies with the recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO), which calls for the use of disposable instruments.

How to benefit from the integration of a McGrath® video laryngoscope?

Through the use of a McGrath® video laryngoscope you not only minimize the risk of infection for your staff, you also increase the rate of successful intubations. This minimizes complications and late effects, which can make a positive contribution to reducing costs in the healthcare system.

Easy-to-read bright monitor
With the MAC Videolaryngoscope McGRATH® the compact screen provides the visual clarity and brightness you need without having to turn your attention away from the patient. Other manufacturers work with external monitors, forcing you to turn your head away from the patient during intubation. Also, external monitors are not nearly as flexible to use or easy to transport as the one we described. McGrath® video laryngoscope. This fact provides the best conditions for successful intubation in an emergency.

What are the additional functions of the MAC video laryngoscope McGRATH®?

The design of the MAC blade from McGRATH® mimics that of the direct laryngoscope. In contrast to other video laryngoscopes, the McGRATH® MAC video laryngoscope takes up very little space. It is portable and has no wheels or stand to take up valuable space in an operating room.

Even with its compact size, there is no loss of quality. A bright display and ergonomic handle help to ensure a successful intubation attempt.
