Abstract
A laryngoscope has a first and second handle portion defining an internal cavity and forming a handle assembly. The laryngoscope includes a first and second blade portion defining an internal cavity and forming a blade assembly. A light and camera source within the internal cavity of the blade assembly illuminates at least a portion of the blade assembly and obtains images of the operation of the laryngoscope. A microprocessor coupled to the camera is mounted within one internal cavity and can record images from the camera. The microprocessor provides on-board recording capable of capturing video and audio and event data, such as from a simulator. A keypad is configured to provide for on-Board event flagging of the recorded data recorded by the microprocessor. The microprocessor may wirelessly transmit data from the laryngoscope.
