About the IVOS BOSS G4™
The IVOS BOSS G4 (Breathing Optimization and Suction System) is an innovative video laryngoscope sleeve that integrates continuous, targeted suction and independent oxygen delivery. This combination rapidly clears aspirate and debris while maintaining a clear tracheal view—even in heavily soiled airways—enabling precise tube placement and higher first-pass success rates. By reducing oxygen deprivation during intubation, the BOSS G4 enhances patient safety and improves outcomes across emergency, perioperative, and critical care settings.
