WARNING: Always lubricate tubing prior to performing any nasal or
oral intubation. Failure to do so will make intubation very difficult and
is likely to result in damage.
Do not place silicone oil directly into the mouth and airway.
The nasogastric intubation feature is used for placement techniques
only. Fluids cannot be inserted through nasogastric tubes as internal
damage will result.
6.2 Breathing
Control the breathing and lung
sounds synchronized with
selectable breathing patterns.
Use a BVM which will seal around
the mouth and nose. The ribs have
normal anatomic landmarks and
the lungs permit an adequate chest
rise. Normal CPR procedures can be
followed with aid of UNI’s CPR trainer.
