First StageCategory: DIRECT LARYNGOSCOPY Source: A Manual Of Peroral Endoscopy And Laryngeal Surgery The spatular end of the laryngoscope is introduced in the right side of the patient's mouth, along the right side of the anterior two-thirds of the tongue. It was the German method to introduce the laryngoscope over the dorsum of the tongue but in order to elevate this sometimes powerful muscular organ considerable force may be required, which exercise of force may be entirely avoided by crowding the tongue over to the left. When the posterior third stage of the tongue is reached, the tip of the laryngoscope is directed toward the midline and the dorsum of the tongue is elevated by a lifting motion imparted to the laryngoscope. The epiglottis will then be seen to project into the endoscopic field, as seen in Fig. 54. [FIG. 54.--End of the first of direct laryngoscopy, recumbent adult patient. The epiglottis is exposed by a lifting motion of the spatular tip on the tongue anterior to the epiglottis.] Next: Second Stage Previous: Direct Laryngoscopy Adult Patient
