Intubation
Intubation is a crucial skill for emergency medical professionals as it allows for the maintenance of airway patency in critically ill or injured patients. Emergency intubation is often required in situations where the patient is unable to breathe independently or has significant respiratory distress. It is a complex procedure that requires extensive training, experience, and knowledge of anatomy and physiology.
