The Miller is one of the most popular blades. The tongue is straight with a slight upward curve near the tip. In cross-section the flange, web, and tongue form a C with the top fattened. Placing the bulb on the right side allows it to be protected by the flange. Several modifications have been described. In comparing the Macintosh and Miller blades, it was found that force, head extension and cervical spine movement were less with the Miller.
