HEINE Standard F.O. LED laryngoscope handle - premium-quality handles with a matte chrome finish that provide excellent slip resistance during intubation.
The handles support both Xenon Halogen (XHL) and LED illumination, are compatible with all laryngoscope blades compliant with ISO 7376 (Green Standard), and meet all national and international sterilization standards.
Anesthesiologists and intensivists value HEINE laryngoscope handles for the following qualities:
-
ideal, natural illumination
- the LED in the handle provides a natural color temperature of 5200 K with a color rendering index CRI > 80, helping clinicians better distinguish and assess anatomical structures.
-
flicker-free white light
- the lamps deliver stable, bright, and consistent illumination, supporting precise tissue visualization while minimizing visual strain and errors.
-
exclusive Fade-Out function
- the Standard F.O. handle gradually dims as the battery discharges, alerting the user when it’s time to replace or recharge the battery.
-
LEDs in HEINE Quality (HQ) - LED illumination is up to 3× brighter than xenon-halogen. HEINE has set a standard where only the best is good enough - from material selection to machining, from light intensity and brightness control to thermal management and a high color rendering index. This is what we call LED in HEINE Quality - LEDHQ.
Rechargeable handles provide approx. 2.5 hours of uninterrupted operation with XHL illumination and about 7 hours with LED illumination.
Benefits of using rechargeable handles:
-
charge indicator on the bottom module
- the indicator lights orange at low battery level.
-
fast charging
- via the NT4 desktop charger.
-
long standard operating time
- up to 13 hours.
-
lithium-ion technology
- no “memory effect.” Charge the handle whenever convenient without worrying about the current charge level or battery condition.
The cleaning and disinfection process is straightforward and does not require complex disassembly - simply unscrew the bottom module and remove the inner module. The handle’s smooth exterior has no sharp edges or recesses, which further speeds up cleaning, sterilization, and disinfection.
Approved reprocessing methods for the handle:
-
automatic cleaning / disinfection
-
immersion disinfection (“high-level disinfection”)
-
steam sterilization
-
low-temperature sterilization
