Abstract
A laryngoscope system includes a body having a handle and an arm, a camera mounted on a distal end of the arm, and a removable blade having a channel sized to fit over the arm to couple the blade to the body. The blade includes a magnet, and a sensor disposed in the body is responsive to the magnet. The laryngoscope system also includes a processor disposed in the body and programmed to enable at least one monitoring function in response to a signal from the sensor.
