Fizza Surgical supplies the Fiber Optic Macintosh Blade 102mm – 105mm (Ref DI 01-20-03) as a standard catalogue line to hospitals and distributors.
The Macintosh laryngoscope blade — designed by Scottish anaesthetist Robert Reynolds Macintosh in 1943 at Oxford — is the most widely used laryngoscope blade worldwide. The curved profile fits the tongue’s anatomy: the blade tip sits in the vallecula (the space between tongue base and epiglottis), and lifting the handle indirectly raises the epiglottis to expose the glottis. This indirect technique reduces the risk of damaging the epiglottis compared with the older Miller (straight) blade approach. Macintosh blades are manufactured in sizes 0 (neonatal) through 4 (large adult); sizes 3 and 4 cover most adult intubations. Modern fiber-optic Macintoshes have largely replaced bulb variants in operating theatres.
