The Anesthesiology Department has incorporated a new equipment for surgical block called a Video Laryngoscope.
This equipment has a technological development that allows the incorporation of a camera that makes possible to see the patient's airway in real time. This functionality provides precision for specialists in difficult airway intubation, ensuring a safe process.
Furthermore, this technology is highly recommended in this pandemic context, ensuring an appropriate distance between the anesthetist and the COVID positive patient.
This new addition is part of the Hospital's permanent efforts to provide the best protection for our patients and personal staff.
