Hello, I'm doing my field internship right now, and I'm horrible with intubations. I've had about five intubation attempts and two king airways, and I failed all of my intubations. My first three attempts where in a moving rig, and my next two were were during cpr. It's definitely more difficult than doing it on a mannequin. Are there any tips you guys can throw out there? How much pressure do you have to apply while lifting up the tongue? There were some cases on which I was able to visualize the vocal cords, but can never get my tube in.
