There are two types of fiberoptic scopes: 

  1. Reusable short scope (used to visualize up to the cord)
        *Must be sterilized after use
  2. Disposable long scope (used to visualize past the cords, intubate)
         *Located on the side of the scope cart across from Resus-5.  Additional scopes can be found near the Resus hydration station on the wall.
         *No longer requires an adaptor
