Designed for "1st Pass Success," GlideScope(R) video laryngoscopes provide a real time view of the airway and of endotracheal tube placement, minimizing the need for a "blind" intubation procedure. The GlideScope(R) Ranger Single Use design is based on the GlideScope(R) reusable video laryngoscope that achieves a Cormack-Lehane Grade I or Grade II view 99 percent of the time.(i)

"The GlideScope(R) Ranger has become very popular with Emergency personnel over the past year," said Dr. John Pacey, inventor of the GlideScope(R) and President of Verathon Medical(R) Canada ULC. "EMS personnel appreciate the view, ease of use, portability and ruggedness of the device. Their only request was for a single-use version, so they could eliminate the wait that comes from disinfecting a reusable instrument."

The GlideScope(R) Ranger Single Use consists of: a slim video baton which houses a high-resolution camera with a patented anti-fogging mechanism to resist lens contamination; a non-glare color monitor that is easily seen in bright light; and single-use, sterile GVL(R) Stats in large and small sizes that offer a patented 60-degree blade angulation.

The GlideScope(R) Ranger was designed to meet the needs of military physicians and paramedics who work in extreme conditions and regularly treat patients with severe trauma. Endotracheal i
