Video laryngoscopes are a tool used to visually follow the process of laryngoscopy, which is a medical device. Laryngoscopy is a procedure used to examine the structure of the throat and larynx. Video laryngoscopes consist of a camera and light source and provide doctors with a clear and detailed image, facilitating diagnosis and treatment processes.

Video laryngoscopes are generally used in laryngoscopic intubation (opening the airway and tube placement) procedures. These devices provide doctors with a real-time image, allowing them to assess the condition of the airway and manage the intubation process more safely and effectively. Additionally, video laryngoscopes are also used for the diagnosis and treatment of throat cancer and other respiratory diseases.

The working principle of video laryngoscopes is achieved through the use of a head or probe consisting of a camera and light source. The cap or probe is placed in the patient's mouth and allows the doctor to directly view the structure of the throat and larynx. The image can be viewed in real time on a screen and recorded when necessary.

Some medical-technical terms related to video laryngoscopes are: "Laryngoscopy" is the process of endoscopic examination of the structure of the throat and larynx. "Intubation" is the process of placing a tube or intubation device into the respiratory tract. "Throat Imaging" is the imaging of the throat with an optical or digital device.

Video laryngoscopes offer a safer and more effective way to open the airway and insert tubes. It provides a clearer and more detailed image compared to traditional laryngoscopy methods. This makes it easier for doctors to make an accurate diagnosis and manage treatment processes.
