 Intubation is accomplished blindly.

 The head and neck should be extended and the tube advanced into the mouth toward the pharynx.Avoid rubbing the dependent eye on the ground if the horse is in lateral recumbency.

 At this location, the tube may touch the underside of the epiglottic cartilage, which must now be dislodged from its position dorsal to the soft palate.

 Withdrawing the tube slightly and rotating it, will usually reposition the epiglottis and allow the tube to advance. If not, repeat the procedure until successful.

 Avoid the temptation to force the tube forward.
