Reusable Special Blades

Polio Blades, English Profile

The polio blade is also a modification of the Macintosh. The blade is offset from the handle at an obtuse angle: to allow intubation of patients in iron lung respirators or body jackets; for use after the anesthesia screen is in place; for patients with obesity, breast hypertrophy, kyphosis with severe barrel chest deformity, a short neck, or restricted neck mobility. Disadvantages of this blade are that little force can be applied and control is minimal.
