The Perfect View

  • 2008 Sept 1

Placing an ET tube with standard eye-to-vocal cord visualization during compressions, in a moving ambulance, and in the tight confines and configurations presented in helicopters, is a difficult task that’s prompting hospitals, ground EMS systems and aeromedical programs to consider video laryngoscopy.

This supplement, which is sponsored by Verathon Inc. , presents the advent of video laryngoscopy and how EMS systems are using the device, so you can understand the technology and its potential impact on you and your service in the future.
