TUBE DELIVERY: Has its own set of skills. To be successful you need to know 1. The anatomic structures that might impede your progress 2. Have an understanding of the spatial relationships of the tube as it travels your line of sight, approaches the glottis & enters the trachea. 
Safety tip: NEVER FORCE A TUBE, FINESSE it with the skills highlighted here or you will cause injury to these delicate structures. #protectedairway #protectyourpatient
MOUTH ENTRY: 1. enter from the right angle of the mouth 2. straight to cuff tube shape 3. rotate up from under your line of sight. This will keep you from blocking your view of the target.
