FYI: MPI's MultiView Scope is a portable system that incorporates a single handpiece with
an integrated monitor and accommodates multiple attachments for video-assisted intubation on patients ranging from
infants to adults. The similarity of its blades to those of traditional laryngoscopes virtually eliminates the learning curve for the user, and the device's
ability to conduct both direct and video visualization make it ideal for routine
use as well as training. A stylet attachment can assist in difficult intubations
and anatomies with limited oral access. The video signal can be routed to
external monitors for viewing and recording.
