Caption:
This image depicts a female hospital patient, who was about to undergo a surgical procedure, and at this point she had been intubated, and fitted with an endotracheal tube that would provide her with a patent airway, while she was under anesthesia. The endotracheal tube will allow air to easily flow into the trachea in an unobstructed fashion, preventing the patient from choking, which could occur while anesthetized.
