Airway management: A new look at old models

Two methods for modifying standard orotracheal intubation models, in order to teach and practice special airway management skills, are described. Using these quick and inexpensive manipulations, an intubation manikin can be modified for use as a teaching model for standard nasotracheal intubation techniques as well as both orotracheal and nasotracheal intubation with a lighted stylet.
