Blind oral tracheal intubation of rats

R. A. Stark, M. L. Nahrwold and P. J. Cohen

Tracheal intubation is often necessary for experiments involving anesthetized rats. Previously described methods for endotracheal intubation have required either a tracheostomy or intubation under direct vision. These techniques require considerable time and skill. Therefore we dissected rats to evaluate the anatomy of the airway. Using these data, we originated a technique for blind oral tracheal intubation using a modified 16-gauge intravenous catheter. The technique has a reasonable success rate and can be performed much more rapidly than conventional methods.
