Value Proposition

SmartBlade offers a cost-effective alternative to expensive video laryngoscopes, thereby increasing access to video laryngoscopy. SmartBlade achieve this by harnessing advanced smartphone application technology, across Apple IOS and Android technologies, and cohesively linked it with video laryngoscopy in a sleek design, simplified by cutting edge biomedical engineering.

The SmartBlade device allows single operators of varied (including lower) skill levels to manage difficult airways. Video laryngoscopy is a vital area of technology that should be widely available to clinicians, thereby increasing access to more competent care. SmartBlade will improve patient outcomes and provide 1st world resources to resource constrained healthcare environments, increasing the capacity to save lives.
