Routine use of the McGRATH™ MAC video laryngoscope (VL) improves first attempt success rate2 and lessens hemodynamic response6,7 while improving economic benefits,8,9 when compared to the traditional direct visualization (DL) technique. McGRATH™ MAC VL provides greater visualization3,4,8 with a familiar Macintosh blade, preparing you for the unexpected during every intubation.
The latest design offers:*,5
The McGRATH™ MAC video laryngoscope is cost-effective8,9 — so it’s within reach for every intubation.
And with disposable, sterile blades and flexible cleaning options, this VL is ready when you are.
