User’s Manual

The GlideScope Cobalt AVL System is an ideal tool for physicians and other 

health care professionals who need to effectively manage standard to dif-

ficult airways. It is useful for the intubation of normal airways, anterior 

airways, neonatal patients, obese patients, and patients with limited neck 

extension. Additionally, it is useful for teaching purposes, verification of  

endotracheal tube (ETT) placement, nasal intubation, and ETT exchange. 

The Cobalt AVL is easy to learn, use, and teach. It is ideal for acute care  

settings and emergency environments. It also integrates into standard  

ED, OR, ICU, and NICU applications.

The Cobalt AVL can be used with a combination of video batons and GVL
