A tight seal will enhance actual feel and sound of penetrating

cricothyroid membrane, and facilitate full rise and fall of the chest

during bag valve mask ventilation.

amount of provided manikin lubricant or liquid soap. Sit the manikin
upright to allow lubricant to coat passages.

2. Perform further intubation procedures as per your local training

protocol.
