Std.-size Laryngoscope handle w/ Infant, Child, Med. & Lg. Adult MacIntosh blades

Laryngoscope

An instrument to provide illumination to the glottis so as to facilitate passing an endotracheal tube through the patient's vocal cords. Laryngoscopes can also be used to examine for any pathology (edema, bleeding, polyps, fibrosis). The most popular laryngoscope, the Macintosh design, is curved so that the end fits into the vallecula, lifting the epiglottis out of the way to expose the vocal cords. Special laryngoscopes also exist, such as the straight blade (Miller) design (passed posterior to the epiglottis, avoiding the vallecula.)

MAST / PASG

Military Anti-Shock Trousers. Also know as PASG (Pneumatic Anti-Shock Garment.) High-waisted inflatable pants that reach from the base of the ribcage to the ankle. When inflated, they cause lower body vascular compression, which forces blood back into the upper body and thus helps to prevent shock. Care should be taken in using these on patients with severe lower body trauma, as the constant absence of blood to the wound areas can accelerate the onset of tissue necrosis (gangrene.)

NP Airway

Nasopharyngeal airway. Airway tubing designed to ventilate the patient through a nostril and down into the trachea.

Nasal Cannula

Tubing (typically plastic) for providing oxygen to the patient. The tube ends under the patients nose with twin outlets (one for each nostril.)
