Sitting oral-tracheal intubation offers rapid airway control for patients needing an upright posture. This technique involves specific patient and operator positioning during endotracheal tube insertion.

Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Critical Care

Background:

  • Airway management is critical in emergency and critical care settings.
  • Maintaining patient posture can be essential for specific medical conditions or procedures.
  • Rapid and effective airway control is a primary goal in patient stabilization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the technique of sitting oral-tracheal intubation.
  • To highlight its utility in patients requiring an upright position.
  • To outline the specific positioning requirements for successful implementation.

Main Methods:

  • The study describes a specific intubation procedure.
  • It involves introducing the endotracheal tube with the patient in a sitting or semi-sitting position.
