  • Publication number: 20250302290
    Abstract: An evacuator device for attachment to a laryngoscope has a rectangular body with a proximal end, a distal end, and a curved region between the proximal end and the distal end. The body defines an interior passage extending from the proximal end to the distal end. The proximal end is configured to attach to a suction tube of a vacuum source. The distal end is configured to attach to a blade of the laryngoscope. A diameter of the interior passage is sized to allow airborne particles and fluid from a patient's larynx and pharynx to be evacuated through the interior passage due to the negative pressure created by the vacuum source. The curved region reduces obstruction of a user's view of the patient's larynx and pharynx.
