Frova Intubating Introducer

Intended to facilitate endotracheal intubation in patients where the visualization of the glottis is inadequate.

Features and benefits

  • The optional stiffening stylet1 adds rigidity to the proximal and middle sections of the catheter, while the distal portion remains flexible.
  • The lumen and sideports are channels by which oxygen may be delivered when the device is used with Rapi-Fit® adapters and an oxygen source.
  • The centimeter marks on the catheter facilitate accurate alignment with endotracheal tubes.
  • The removable Rapi-Fit adapters permit oxygen delivery, if necessary.

Cook® Retrograde Intubation Set

The Cook Retrograde Intubation Set is intended to assist in intubation during difficult airway access procedures in adult and pediatric patients.1

  • The catheter’s tapered tip allows for smoother navigation through the patient’s anatomy.
  • The antegrade introduction of a hollow intubation catheter with distal sideports and Rapi-Fit adapters allows you to provide the patient with oxygen and facilitates the placement of an endotracheal tube.
