Abstract:
A laryngoscope device with an elongate handle includes a video laryngoscope blade with a camera mounted transversely on a first end of the handle and one or more pivot assemblies coupling a display monitor on an opposing second end of the handle. Each pivot assembly includes a pivot coupling defining a respective axis of rotation of the display monitor relative to the handle and a motor for controlling angular position of the display monitor relative to the handle about the respective axis. A sensor device is arranged to detect movement of the display monitor away from a target orientation such that a controller having the target orientation stored thereon can be adapted to operate the motor to return the display monitor to the target orientation.
