distance is not maintained, performance of the system may be degraded and image display may
be compromised.

WARNING

When you are guiding the endotracheal tube to the distal tip of the video laryngoscope, ensure
that you are looking in the patient’s mouth, not at the screen. Failure to do so may result in
injury, such as to the tonsils or soft palate.

WARNING

Do not place the video baton in the cradle if any of the components are contaminated.

WARNING

The area surrounding the camera in the video laryngoscope can contact the patient and can
exceed 41°C (106°F) as part of normal operation. Patient contact with this area of the blade
during intubation is unlikely, as it would cause an obstruction of the camera view. Do not
maintain continuous contact with this area of the blade for longer than 1minute; it is possible

1. Based on a clinical assessment of the patient and the experience and judgment of the clinician, select the
GlideScope video laryngoscope that is appropriate for the patient.

2. Attach the video cable and video laryngoscope to the monitor, according to the instructions in Attach

the Video Cable to the Monitor on page16.

3. Turn on the video monitor.

4. Ensure that the battery is sufficiently charged. If necessary, connect the monitor directly to power.

5. On the monitor screen, verify that the image displayed is from the video laryngoscope camera. A small
portion of the blade may be visible on the upper-left corner or top of the monitor screen.

6. If needed, allow the anti-fog feature to warm up for 30–120seconds.

Note: The time required for the anti‑fog feature to be fully optimized varies according to the ambient
temperature and humidity where the equipment is being stored or used. If the video laryngoscope is stored in
cold conditions, additional warming time may be required for optimal performance of the anti‑fog feature.

7. If desired to provide additional anti-fog benefits, you may apply Dexide Fred or DexideFredLite to the
camera window on the reusable blade.* Use the solution according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

* Compatibility has been demonstrated for up to 100cycles on reusable video laryngoscopes.

Procedure 2. INTuBATe THe PATIeNT

Please read the Warnings & Cautions section before performing the following tasks.

To perform an intubation, Verathon recommends using one of the following techniques appropriate for
the style laryngoscope being used. Prior to beginning this procedure, verify that the monitor is receiving an
accurate image from the video laryngoscope.

OptiOn 1. LOpRO BLADE OR GVL StAt

If you are using a Mac-style or Miller-style blade, skip to the next option, Mac-Style or Miller-Style Blade.

1. Stabilize the patient’s head.

2. Look in the mouth, insert the blade midline, and then advance the tip into thevallecula.

3. Look at the screen, and then lift the epiglottis for a view of thelarynx.

4. Look in the mouth, and then introduce an endotracheal tube alongside theblade.

5. Look at the screen, and then complete theintubation.

6. If using a GlideRite Rigid Stylet, remove it by pulling toward the patient’sfeet.

OptiOn 2. MAC‑StYLE OR MiLLER‑StYLE BLADE

1. If the patient’s condition allows, place the head in a sniffingposition.

2. Look in the mouth, insert the blade into the right side, and then sweep the tongueleft.

3. Lift the blade for the best view of thelarynx.

4. Look in the mouth, and then introduce an endotracheal tube alongside theblade.

5. Complete theintubation.

Procedure 3. PrePAre A coMPoNeNT For cLeANING

1. Make sure the video monitor has been turned off.

2. Detach the video cable from the monitor by doing one of the following:

• GlideScope Video Monitor—Turn the connector ring in the direction of the releasearrow, and then pull.

• Core monitor—Hold the cable connector in one hand and support the monitor with the other, and

then pull.

If you are cleaning a video laryngoscope or baton with a detachable video cable, make sure to also
detach the cable from the scope.

Figure 9. GlideScope Video Monitor Figure 10. Core Monitor

3. Prior to cleaning or disinfecting AVL video batons, ensure that the protective cap is properly fitted on
the cable connector. The arrow on the connector plug should line up with the dot on the protective cap.
Video Baton 2.0, Titanium reusable video laryngoscopes, GlideScope Video Cables, GlideScope Smart
Cables, Core Video Cables, and Core Smart Cables do not require a protective cap.

Correct fitting Incorrect fitting

4. Optionally, to prevent contaminants from drying onto the surface of the device, apply a pre-cleaner to
the component. Bodily contaminants tend to become securely attached to solid surfaces when dried,
making removal more difficult.

MAINTENANCE & SAFETY

Please read the Warnings & Cautions section before performing the following tasks.

PERIODIC INSPECTIONS

In addition to the user performing routine inspections before and after every use, periodic inspections should
be performed to ensure safe and effective operation. It is recommended that an operator familiar with the
instrument perform a full visual inspection of all components at least every three months. The inspector should
check the system for external damage to the equipment and damage to the connectors or cable insulation.

Report any suspected defects to Verathon Customer Care or your local representative. For contact information,
visit verathon.com/global-support.

ELUTION COMPATIBILITY

For use with GlideScope Titanium reusable video laryngoscopes, Verathon has completed testing of
compatibility with a 1%sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) solution with pH11.0.

The SDS solution is commonly utilized in Europe as an eluting solution to collect residual protein samples
from medical tools or devices that are cleaned after contacting patient tissue. The protein sample solution is
then examined as a verification of the hospital cleaning process.

The testing concluded that 1% SDS solution with pH 11.0 is chemically compatible with the reusable video
laryngoscopes and gives no adverse results when performing repeated 30-minute soaking for 100cycles.

DEVICE REPAIR

The system components are not user-serviceable. Verathon does not make available any type of circuit
diagrams, component parts lists, descriptions, or other information that would be required for repairing the
device and related accessories. All service must be performed by a qualified technician.

If you have any questions, contact your local Verathon representative or Verathon Customer Care.

DEVICE DISPOSAL

Disposal of this device in accordance with WEEE requirements can be coordinated through your Verathon
Service Center.
