Laryngoscope. ( see what happens in the throat)

By

Laryngoscopy is endoscopy of the larynx, a part of the throat. It is a medical procedure that is used to obtain a view, for example, of the vocal folds and the glottis. Laryngoscopy may be performed to facilitate tracheal intubation during general anaesthesia or cardiopulmonary resuscitation or for surgical procedures on the larynx or other parts of the upper tracheobronchial tree.
Doctors sometimes use a small device to look into your throat and larynx, or voice box. This device is called a Laryngoscope.

Use against COVID-19

Tracheal intubation should be performed by an experienced anesthesiologist with an experienced assistant (preferably also an anesthesiologist) and a nurse, to maximize patient safety (fig. 1) and to manage the severe hypoxemia and circulatory failure that might occur. Muscle relaxants are highly recommended.5  The video laryngoscope should be placed as soon as muscle relaxation is achieved, and tracheal intubation should be accomplished and confirmed as soon as possible (less than 15 to 20 s)

Mask Strap Efficiency  This simple but useful tool is designed to make face masks less painful to wear for medical workers treating coronavirus patients. The part is made by printing a set, and then connecting with any filament which will also set its width.  In this way, the filament which is needed for a single print is reduced and 18 sets on a 250x250mm print bed are allowed. Small protrusions on both sides of the plastic buckle hold the mask strap and the mask strap does not exert painful pressure on the ears. References: Michael B. ( 2020 ). Prusa Printers.
