The simulator’s airway has anatomical landmarks and can be intubated orally, nasally, and
through the trachea using an endotracheal tube, nasopharyngeal tube, or LMA.
Before intubating,
1.
Turn the respiratory rate to zero
2.
Lubricate the adjunct with mineral oil
WARNING: Always lubricate tubing prior
to performing any nasal or oral intubation.
Failure to do so will make intubation very
difficult and will result in damage to the
airway. Do not apply silicone or mineral
oil directly into the mouth and airway.
