"We're pleased to offer this new grant writing kit to the EMS community," stated Gerald McMorrow, CEO, and Founder of Verathon. "With improved medical equipment and related funds both available, this kit is designed to offer EMS health care providers the needed "bridge" to match these two resources," McMorrow continued. "EMS personnel deserve the best tools available to do their jobs. Successful grant writing can help them get the equipment and supplies they need."

Data indicate that improved airway instruments remain an essential equipment segment for EMS facilities. Endotracheal intubation carries a higher risk of improper tube placement when performed in an out-of-hospital setting. Clinical studies report that in emergency out-of-hospital intubations, up to 25% of endotracheal tubes (ETT) are misplaced, with 66% of misplaced tubes being inserted into the esophagus.(i) Out-of-hospital intubations also carry a greater risk of complications. In a study of patients with severe head injuries undergoing endotracheal intubation, the odds of death were approximately 4 times greater for patients intubated outside the hospital.(ii) With this data in mind, Verathon designed the GlideScope(R) Ranger video laryngoscope specifically to assist in challenging pre-hospital endotracheal intubations.

The GlideScope(R) Ranger was developed to meet the needs of military physicians and paramedics
