Patent number: 8628879Abstract: Magnetic Resonance (MR) conditional medical equipment for use in MR environments. The MR conditional medical equipment includes MR conditional handheld battery operated devices, for example, laryngoscopes, flashlights, and the like, and MR conditional carbon zinc power packs for operating the devices. The devices can be designed to be inoperable by standard alkaline batteries which would render the medical equipment non MR conditional. Alternatively, the devices can have a sealed power pack compartment pre-installed with a non-replaceable carbon zinc power pack.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2007Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: Truphatek International Ltd.Inventors: Eugeny Pecherer, Shiri Soffer

The laryngoscope handle includes a laryngoscope optical system securing arrangement for mechanically securing the laryngoscope optical system in the operative intubation position. The laryngoscope assembly also includes an interchangeable laryngoscope blade including a trailing view tube sleeve for slidably mounting on the view tube and a leading spatula wherein the view tube sleeve has a leading transparent window for covering the aperture lens. The laryngoscope assembly further includes a blade securing arrangement for mechanically securing the laryngoscope blade on the laryngoscope handle in the operative intubation position.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2012Date of Patent: August 20, 2013Assignee: Truphatek International Ltd.Inventors: David Grey, Eugeny Pecherer

Patent number: 8505531Abstract: Hand operated articulated intubation stylet including an articulated stylet member with a link at its distal end, a L-shaped lever with a downward depending handle for tautening a flexible wire for flexing the link into a flexed positioned to form a hook-like configuration in the stylet member's side view, and a stopper mechanism mounted on the stylet member for stopping insertion of the stylet member into an endotracheal tube at a suitable position depending on the endotracheal tube's length. The handle and the link are on opposite sides of the stylet member such that a user conveniently operates the stylet with his fingers stretched out to grip the stylet member and his palm depressing the handle towards the stylet member to flex the stylet member's link into its flexed position for manipulating an endotracheal tube's outboard end for insertion into a patient's trachea.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2007Date of Patent: August 13, 2013Assignee: Truphatek International Ltd.Inventors: Eugeny Pecherer, Shiri Soffer
