• GlideScope® Cobalt - A single-use Video Laryngoscope that provides a clear, real-time view of the patient's airway enabling quick intubation. Optimized for demanding operating room (OR), emergency department (ED), intensive care unit (ICU), and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) applications, the GlideScope^® Cobalt single-use design, which eliminates the need for disinfecting the "blade", is ideal for fast-paced intubation settings. GlideScope^® Cobalt consists of: a slim Video Baton, which houses a high-resolution camera with patented anti-fogging mechanism to resist lens contamination; a non-glare color monitor; and single-use, sterile GVL^® Stats available in 4 sizes that offer a patented unique blade angulation.
• GlideScope® Ranger – The GlideScope^® Ranger is a portable, compact and durable video laryngoscope that provides a clear, real time view of the patient’s airway for fast intubations in Military and Emergency settings. Featuring rugged, high-impact construction, a patented blade angulation, a non-glare monitor that is easily visible in bright light, and a patented anti-fogging mechanism that resists lens contamination, the GlideScope^® Ranger was designed to be dependable in an array of field conditions. It is available in 2 sizes ranging from small child to bariatric patients.
• GlideRite® Rigid Stylet - Designed specifically for use with the GlideScope^® Video Laryngoscope, the rigid stylet conforms to the GlideRite^® blade shape (a patented design to improve airway view) and eliminates the need to manually shape the stylet to fit down the airway, an important factor during time-critical endotracheal intubations.
