Essential microskill for airway assistants!
When intubating over a bougie, the bougie is placed into the trachea and the assistant places the tube over the bougie
Because bougies are straight and tracheal tubes have a curve, there is a tendency for the bougie to hit against the inside of the 15 mm connector on the end of the tube
An essential microskill for airway assistants is to gently straighten the tube so the bougie goes through the connector rather than hitting against it
