Video laryngoscopy used in the operating room supports first-attempt success of airway intubation. Research also shows that video laryngoscopy can help prevent clinician exposure to droplet-borne pathogens and further improve your safety.3 Recent guidelines highlight the risks of contracting COVID-19 among those caring for infected patients.3 The guidelines recommend that airway management clinicians take precautions to further protect against droplet-borne pathogens.3
The McGRATH™ MAC video laryngoscope is proven to improve first time success rate,1,2 reduce time,([FOOTNOTE=Alvis BD, Hester D, Watson D, Higgins M, St Jacques P.

Your first attempt at intubation should be your best attempt. Study results show that video laryngoscopy can improve first pass intubation for success for trainees and experienced clinicians alike.1
The next-generation McGRATH™ MAC video laryngoscope is an enhanced, more robust device, designed to be used routinely in fast-paced hospital and EMS environments. The latest design offers:
The McGRATH™ MAC video laryngoscope combines line-of-sight video from its portrait display with the familiar Macintosh technique. So you retain your traditional laryngoscopy skills.
The minute-by-minute battery indication and auto- off feature effectively optimize battery life. One handle with multiple blade options. From pediatric to adult patients and routine to extreme airways.([FOOTNOTE=Gaszyński T. Comparison of the glottic view during video-intubation in super obese patients: a series of cases.
