Abstract
The technology relates to a medical video system that includes a video laryngoscope, a cartridge removably attached to the housing of the video laryngoscope, and an introducer such as endoscope. The cartridge may include a port, an output drive, and first electrical contacts. The endoscope may include a proximal end having a drive system and second electrical contacts. The proximal end of the endoscope is sized to enter the port, align the second electrical contacts with the first electrical contacts, and engage the drive system with the output drive such that movement of the output drive causes movement of the drive system. The video laryngoscope is programmed to receive a steering input on the display screen, translate the steering input into a movement of the drive output, and transmit a steering signal to cause the movement of the output drive.
