What does pressing and holding the power button on the Infinium ClearVue Video Laryngoscope do?

Pressing and holding the power button on the Infinium ClearVue Video Laryngoscope is designed to turn the unit on or off. This function is crucial for the operation of the device, allowing the user to manage power effectively, which is essential in medical emergencies where proper equipment functionality is vital.

When powering up the device, it prepares the system for use, ensuring that all components are properly initialized. Conversely, if the device needs to be turned off, holding down the power button provides a reliable way to ensure that it shuts down safely, thus preserving battery life and data integrity.

The other functions mentioned, such as starting a recording or enabling the video feed, typically involve separate actions or controls specifically designed for those purposes, rather than being tied to the power button.
