Indirect Laryngoscopy definition
Indirect Laryngoscopy means the procedure that is performed whenever the provider visualizes the patient's vocal cords by a means other than obtaining a direct line of sight (e.g. a mirror). For the purpose of intubation, this is facilitated by fiberoptic bronchoscopes, video laryngoscopes, fiber optic stylets and mirror or prism optically-enhanced laryngoscopes.
