Abstract
A video laryngoscope has an arm comprising a video camera, at least one electrical conductor extending to the video camera, an elongate electrical conductor retaining member retaining the electrical conductor and an overmolding extending around the elongate cable retaining member and having a smooth outer surface. Providing a laryngoscope arm overmolded to provide a smooth outer surface has the benefit of allowing the laryngoscope arm to be readily cleaned or sterilized, and minimizes the number of features, such as seams or joints, where dirt or infectious bodies may be retained.
