Abstract: Disclosed are laryngoscopes and other devices that include both a visualization feature and a suction component, to eliminate debris and bodily fluids and secretions that may accumulate on the visualization component. The devices may include one or more of the fluid intake ports that may be sized and located proximate to the operational ends of the visual-aid components, e.g., the camera lens or LED, to maintain a clean field of view for operation of the component. The internal passageways of the device are configured, dimensioned and/or shaped to facilitate desired fluid flow characteristics, flow rate, and/or pressure rates and facilitate methods of manufacturing the device.

Abstract: A laryngoscope with integrated and controllable suction includes a handle and a blade. A suction port is at the proximal end of the handle and is configured for connection to an air source. The suction port defines an opening into one or more air flow paths defined through the laryngoscope, which each terminate at one or more intake ports. In some embodiments, a valve is interposed into each air flow path to regulate air flow along each air flow path. Such a valve is operably connected to a switch mounted on an exterior surface of the laryngoscope, such that manipulation of the switch causes the valve to open or close, thus allowing the physician or other medical professional to control the air flow and selectively apply constant or intermittent suction.

Abstract translation: 具有集成和可控吸力的喉镜包括手柄和刀片。 吸入口位于手柄的近端，并被配置为连接到空气源。 吸入口将开口限定在通过喉镜限定的一个或多个气流通道中，每个气流路径终止于一个或多个进气口。 在一些实施例中，阀被插入到每个空气流动路径中以调节沿着每个空气流动路径的空气流。 这样的阀可操作地连接到安装在喉镜的外表面上的开关，使得开关的操作导致阀打开或关闭，从而允许医师或其他医疗专业人员控制气流并选择性地施加常数或 间歇抽吸。
