The blade is offset (to enhance visibility of the baby's throat) and angled downward (to encourage the proper technique of pushing instead of rotating). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67cbc8e7698e563f8503b076/0617cc29-168d-48dc-98e7-8da434cd1db2/Screen+Shot+2025-03-13+at+4.38.14+PM.png Intubation After testing with Stanford nurses, we learned that our MVP needed better readability and more context about what each section meant.
