• Store in a dry, cool and dark place.
ADVERSE EVENTS
Adverse events associated with the use
of VivaSight-SL are the same as those of
standard endotracheal tubes. The most
common are laryngospasm; vocal cord
paralysis; injuries to lips, gums, tongue,
teeth; and aspiration of gastric contents.
Consult scientific literature for specific
adverse reaction information.
Adverse events associated with use
of standard endotracheal tubes, are
fracture or dislocation of the cervical
spine, endobronchial or esophageal
intubation, perforation of the trachea or
esophagus, and failed intubation.

INTUBATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
Intubation
with
performed according to currently
accepted medical techniques.
The tube position should be inside the
trachea above the main carina.
• Laryngoscope: With VivaSight-SL, use
of the laryngoscope may be gentler. It
can be used to just hold the tongue.
VivaSight-SL
is
• Stylet: The accompanying stylet is used
to make VivaSight-SL more rigid, for
use with or without laryngoscope.
• Oral: Approved for oral intubation
procedures.
PRE-INTUBATION PREPARATION
CHOOSING VIVASIGHT-SL SIZE
• Use the same size VivaSight-SL as
standard required endotracheal tube size.
• Use

when choosing tracheal tube size for
each patient.
CONNECTING THE TUBE,
VERIFICATION STEPS
& PREPARATION FOR
INTUBATION
1. Connect VivaSight-SL to the single
use adapter cable. Be careful to align
the white arrow on the single use
adapter cable with the arrow on the
VivaSight-SL tube round connector.
2. Connect the single use adapter cable
™
to the aView
monitor, be careful to
align the arrow on the cable with
the arrow indicator on the aView
monitor. Verify that all electrical
connections are stable and secure.
™
Refer to aView
monitor instructions
for use.
3. Press the power button on top of
the aView
monitor for at least
TM
one second until a live image
appears. Refer to aView
instructions for use. The aView
monitor user interface will be ready
after approximately one minute, when
the hourglass symbol disappears.
During this time, proceed with the
verification steps.
4. Check that the two LEDs at the
tip of the tube are illuminated.
If they are not illuminated, replace the
tube with another.
5. Verify that there is a stable image on
the aView
monitor (projected from
TM
the tip of VivaSight-SL). Then turn off
the monitor again until immediately
prior to intubation.
