IMPORTANT INFORMATION PRODUCT INFORMATION The GlideScope Core monitor provides the ability to attach a wide range of accessories, allowing for innovative system configurations. With two input connections, the system allows users to switch between different scopes without needing to disconnect and reconnect, or to have two different instruments connected for use simultaneously with picture-in-picture options.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The GlideScope Core monitor, in conjunction with reusable and Spectrum single‑use video laryngoscopes, is designed to deliver clear airway views and enable rapid intubation. Low‑profile designs and innovative construction make these blades streamlined and lightweight, offering improved maneuverability and working space for routine and difficult airways. With more scope options, including Mac‑style laryngoscopes, clinicians can choose their preferred tools for a wide range of patients and clinical settings. And whether it’s reusable or single‑use, the system features a high‑resolution, full‑color digital camera and monitor for real‑time viewing and recording. For more information on compatible scopes, please see the GlideScope Video Laryngoscopes Operations and Maintenance Manual available at verathon.com/product‑documentation.
STATEMENT OF INTENDED USE The monitor and workstation are intended to work with video laryngoscopes, in conjunction with other ancillary equipment, for laryngoscopy within the airway.
ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE When connected to compatible camera components (such as a video laryngoscope), the essential performance of the monitor is to support these components in displaying a clear, unobstructed view of the airway for medical procedures.
ENVIRONMENTS OF INTENDED USE The GlideScope Core system is intended to be used in Professional Healthcare Environment.
STATEMENT OF PRESCRIPTION Caution: Federal (United States) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.

5 Operations & Maintenance Manual: Important Information
INTRODUCTION GLIDESCOPE CORE The monitor is compatible with the following single‑use and reusable scopes: • Spectrum Single‑Use blades • Titanium Reusable blades • Video Batons and Stats The monitor uses scopes and connecting cables, along with optional system components to help facilitate intubations, endoscopy, or provide convenience to the user. You may use either single‑use or reusable components, or your facility may elect to provide both. This manual details how to use the monitor and provides limited information on how to connect scopes. For more information on compatible scopes, see the GlideScope Video Laryngoscope Operations & Maintenance Manual available at verathon.com/product‑documentation, or contact Verathon Customer Care. In this document, unless otherwise noted, the term video cable describes all possible cable configurations for reusable blades, single‑use blades, and video batons.
SINGLE‑USE OPTIONS Single-use Spectrum blades and the video baton 2.0 connect to the monitor through the reusable GlideScope Core Smart Cable. Single‑use video laryngoscopes are identified by an S in the blade name, such as LoPro S4. Video batons use single‑use GVL Stats which are offered in a comprehensive range of sizes, allowing clinicians to meet the particular requirements of patients ranging in size from preterm infants to large adults. All single-use components must be disposed of after one use. IMPORTANT
T
Single‑use blades in S3 and S4 sizes may also be available in white. These are not part of the Spectrum Single‑Use system. For more information about the white blades, see the GlideScope Titanium Single‑Use Operations and Maintenance Manual at verathon.com/product‑documentation.
REUSABLE OPTIONS Titanium video laryngoscopes must be cleaned and high‑level disinfected between uses. These connect to the video monitor through the reusable GlideScope Core Video Cable. Due to their titanium construction, reusable video laryngoscopes contain a T in the blade name, such as LoPro T4.
