NextGen Tube Introducers

A NEXTGEN LEARNING SPACE DESIGNED TO ELEVATE YOUR AIRWAY PRACTICE

Introduction

listen here

AUDIO COMING SOON

The evolution of the tube introducer continues. In this space we highlight an articulating device: the Total Control Introducer. Creators like @RunnelsSean are looking at the needs of todays clinicians from a global perspective.

This nextgen “bougie” is built to work effectively with DL but also integrate more effectively with the video laryngoscope. Its articulating distal tip can improve tracheal access, and unlike traditional bougies, it plays well with HAVL.
