a native video image system
The visualization of the glottic structures through the SaCoVLM™ imaging system is graded as follows: Grade1: Visibility of the lateral portion of the right epiglottic fold and part of the laryngeal inlet. Grade 2: Visibility of both epiglottic folds and part of the laryngeal inlet. Grade 3: Visibility of the laryngeal inlet and part of the vocal cords. Grade 4: Visibility of the entire vocal cords.
Fiberoptic bronchoscope
The position of the i-Gel is checked using a fiberoptic endoscope
