McCoy Fiber Optic Flex Tip Laryngoscope Blade
Price range: $ 48.00 through $ 74.00
The McCoy Fiber Optic Flex Tip Laryngoscope Blade is a specialized surgical instrument designed to overcome the challenges of difficult endotracheal intubation. Featuring a unique hinged tip controlled by a lever mechanism, this blade allows the clinician to elevate the epiglottis with minimal force, providing an exceptional view of the glottis in restricted anatomical spaces. Made by Adas instruments from non-magnetic German stainless steel, this blade incorporates a high-transmission fiber optic bundle that utilizes an LED Lamp for Light source for brilliant, cool illumination. This fully reusable tool is an essential component for any difficult airway trolley, ensuring clinical reliability and superior patient safety during complex anesthesia protocols.
- Application: Specifically engineered for patients with limited neck mobility or difficult airway anatomy.
- Mechanism: Lever-operated hinged tip for controlled elevation of the epiglottis.
- Optics: Integrated fiber optic bundle for shadow-free, high-intensity light.
- Quality Standards: ISO 13485:2016 certified and CE marked for global medical use

McCoy Fiber Optic Flex Tip Laryngoscope Blade: Precision Control for Difficult Intubations
The McCoy Fiber Optic Flex Tip Laryngoscope Blade is a critical innovation in anesthesia airway management. Unlike standard curved blades, this instrument features a hinged distal tip that can be flexed via a lever on the handle, providing the surgeon with significant mechanical advantage. This advanced fiber optic McCoy system allows for the displacement of the epiglottis even when the patient has restricted mouth opening or limited cervical spine mobility. The integration of high-density glass fibers ensures that a concentrated beam of light is delivered precisely where it is needed most.
Forged for high-stakes emergency and surgical environments, these flexible-tip Fiber optic laryngoscope components are crafted from premium surgical-grade steel to ensure lifelong durability. The lever mechanism is engineered for smooth, responsive action, while the light-conductive fiber architecture remains protected within a reinforced housing. To maintain clinical excellence, each blade is finished with a non-reflective satin coating to reduce glare under intense surgical lighting. This pivoting-tip airway instrument construction provides a specialized intubation apparatus that withstands the rigors of frequent sterilization while maintaining its sensitive mechanical calibration.
Application
- Primary choice for managing suspected or confirmed difficult airways (Cormack-Lehane Grade 2 & 3).
- Ideal for patients with cervical spine injuries where neck extension must be avoided.
- Used in emergency medicine for rapid sequence induction in trauma cases.
- Facilitates visualization in patients with prominent upper incisors or receding mandibles.
- Essential for difficult airway carts in the Operating Room and Intensive Care Units.
Quality and Finishing
Each McCoy Fiber Optic Flex Tip Laryngoscope Blade undergoes a specialized hand-calibration process to ensure the hinge mechanism operates with surgical precision. The fiber optic bundle is hermetically sealed into the stainless steel shaft using medical-grade epoxy, a hallmark of the manufacturing quality at Adas Instruments. This ensures the optics remain clear and the mechanical pivot stays fluid even after repeated autoclave cycles at 134°C, offering a robust solution for the most challenging clinical scenarios.

People Also Ask
Q: When should a McCoy blade be used instead of a standard Macintosh?
A: The McCoy blade is indicated when the glottis is difficult to visualize with a standard blade, particularly in patients with restricted neck movement.
Q: Is the hinge mechanism fragile during sterilization?
A: No, our McCoy blades are designed for the autoclave. The hinge and lever are made of reinforced stainless steel to withstand standard sterilization protocols.
Q: What handle is compatible with the McCoy Fiber Optic blade?
A: It is fully compatible with all ISO 7376 Green System fiber optic laryngoscope handles.
