Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about IntuBlade's technology, pricing, and capabilities.
- What is IntuBlade?
- IntuBlade is a single-use USB-C video laryngoscope that plugs into the phone or tablet crews already carry, with lens-clearing on the blade and app recording for QA/QI.
- What is a video laryngoscope?
- A video laryngoscope is an airway management device with a camera and display that lets providers view the vocal cords on a screen during intubation, instead of relying only on a direct line of sight.
- How does the lens-clearing work?
- IntuBlade has a patented lens-clearing system. A standard 10 mL saline syringe (not included) locks into a luer-lock port on the handle. Pressing the plunger briefly clears the camera lens without removing the blade from the airway.
- How much does IntuBlade cost?
- MAP is $99.95 per blade. A box of 10 is $969.99. Volume quotes for departments: contact sales.
- Why is IntuBlade single-use?
- Every IntuBlade comes fresh from the package. No charging. No cleaning. No reprocessing. Single-use eliminates the workflow burden of sterilization cycles and ensures readiness at the point of care.
- Is IntuBlade FDA registered?
- Yes. IntuBlade is a 510(k)-exempt, Class I medical device. FDA registered. Rx Only. Not FDA cleared or FDA approved.
- Is setup fast?
- Plug in and go. The IntuBlade app launches automatically on connection and recording begins when the device is plugged in. No boot-up workflow. No manual record button.
- Where is IntuBlade currently deployed?
- IntuBlade is deployed across hundreds of departments nationwide, including EMS services, hospitals, training programs, and military medical units.
- Is IntuBlade used by flight or air medical programs?
- Yes. IntuBlade is in use with city, government, and military units, including the Air Force. We do not name specific programs.
- What devices is IntuBlade compatible with?

- What is the lens-clearing technology?
