Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune – Lt. Cmdr. Joseph Kotora, a physician at Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune, practices Intubation on a Manikin during one of the hospital's trauma drills utilizing the skills practiced in Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS). Intubation is the process of inserting a tube, called an endotracheal tube (ET), through the mouth and then into the airway. This is done so that a patient can be placed on a ventilator to assist with breathing. (Official U.S. Navy photo by William Townsend/ Released)
