PENTAX Airway Scope (AWS) Video laryngoscope and PENTAX Single Patient Use blade (PBlade)

Main benefits of the PENTAX-AWS

Accurate and safe placement of endotracheal tube
The target symbol displayed on the monitor highlights the intended path of the ET tube. Safe, fast and accurate placement is easily obtained by aligning the target symbol over the glottic opening.

Intubate from various positions
Multi-positional monitor (0 to 120°) permits viewing from various positions to facilitate all methods of intubation.

Portable
Powered by two AA alkaline batteries, its energy efficient system permits continuous operation for 1 hour. It has a low-battery alert feature that displays a warning on the monitor screen when the batteries are running low.

Pre-Hospital Use
Water-resistant, durable construction makes the PENTAX-AWS ideal for outdoor environments in inclement weather.

Video Documentation
Video output is compatible with external monitors and recording devices.

Main Benefits of PENTAX PBlade

Stylet not required
The ET tube guide directs the ET tube into the glottic opening and eliminates the need for a stylet.

Patient safety and efficiency
PBlade incorporates sterile, single patient use design that minimizes the risk of infection and provides faster equipment turnaround time.

Versatile design
Allows for preloading of the ET tube prior to the procedure. If it is preferred not to preload, the groove on the blade can be used to guide the ET tube into the glottic opening after the PBlade is in place and the glottic opening is in view.

Aspiration of Secretions
A suction catheter may be inserted through the PBlade to permit aspiration of secretions and/or a foreign body under direct vision.
