Intubation
The upper airway of the Luna manikin is designed to allow for intubation and laryngoscopy. Direct
laryngoscopy as well as oral and nasal tracheal intubation can be performed using devices such as
endotracheal tubes, nasopharyngeal airways, and oropharyngeal airways.
Intubation of the Luna
CAUTION: Airways can be damaged by improper insertion of an airway adjunct (such as
endotracheal tube). To protect the airway, lubricate the adjunct prior to insertion using the
cottonseed oil spray provided.
Use ONLY the provided COTTONSEED OIL to lubricate the adjunct. NEVER use a water-based
lubricant. Using a water-based lubricant can cause residue damage.
Stomach Distention
If the manikin is incorrectly intubated and the tubing has bypassed the airway into the esophagus,
the manikin will exhibit signs of stomach distention.
