Abstract : Perseus Medical, Inc. proposes to build and test a cost effective self-contained video laryngoscope (SVL} providing visualization of trachea and vocal chords during emergent situations at the point of care. The SVL will fulfill currently unmet needs by providing a completely self-contained portable endoscopic system that can be used at bedside without the need for external power sources and/or instrumentation. The annual report fully details that strides that have been made to the SVL sub-systems: optical, mechanical, electronics, and software.
