The Standard English MacIntosh Laryngoscope Set features English Macintosh blades the most popular style of laryngoscope blade outside of the United States. The blade design differs in several aspects from the original Macintosh blade.
The curve of the English Macintosh is more continuous which improves the lifting mechanics. The overall length of the blades is longer in order to help assist intubation in patients with an anterior larynx. The height of the blade had been reduced for easier intubation in patients with limited oral access.
The English Macintosh set includes both of Welch Allyn's cell battery lightweight handles and lightweight blades for maximum maneuverability. Blades are manufactured from one piece stainless steel, and the handles of chrome-plated brass, to assure a lifetime of performance. Handles feature a knurled finish for a comfortable and secure grip.
Robust Design Welch Allyn's laryngoscope design uses a single piece of 304-series stainless steel as its load-bearing member. This one-piece construction of the Welch Allyn blade is more robust than the typical competitive product. Furthermore, its one-piece blade construction eliminates the potentially weaker soldered or brazed joint.
Design Features Welch Allyn's innovative design incorporates an easy-to-remove light pipe that eliminates the difficult-to-clean areas of most competitive laryngoscopes.
Removable Light Pipe Another feature designed to help improve the cleaning of a Welch Allyn blade is its surface finish. Typicallaryngoscope finishes have a surface roughness of 32 in. The surface finish used on all Welch Allyn blades have a roughness of just 8 in. This creates a surface texture that is approximately four times smoother than competitive blades, resulting in an easier-to-clean, stain-resistant laryngoscope blade. What's more, the surface finish is not a plating and therefore does not alter the 304-series stainless steel construction of the blade itself.
