Intubation

Intubation is a medical procedure where a tube is inserted into a person's airway to help them breathe. This is often done in emergencies, during surgeries, or when a patient can't breathe on their own. The tube connects to a ventilator, which can deliver oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. Intubation ensures that the airway remains open and clear, preventing obstruction and allowing for proper ventilation. It's a crucial skill used by doctors and emergency medical personnel to provide life-saving assistance in critical situations.
