Sklar Miller Laryngoscope Blades are used for direct, rigid laryngoscopy procedures to view vocal cords, remove foreign objects from the throat, biopsy, or tracheal intubation. The Miller blade is straight and therefore longer than the curved Macintosh blade. It is inserted past the epiglottis, typically causing less trauma during intubation. The Miller blade is commonly used with pediatric and infant patients. This product is a fiber-optic, #2 American Style Miller blade.
