AB The  term  endotracheal  intubation,  or  tracheal  intubation,  broadly  refers  to  the  insertion  of  a  definitive  artificial  airway  into  the  trachea  by  either  the  translaryngeal  or  transtracheal  route.  Translaryngeal  intubation  (TLI),  a  more  specific  term,  is  transoral  or  transnasal  intubation  of  the  airway  through  the  larynx.  The  term  endotracheal  tube  (ETT),  as  opposed  to  tracheostomy  tube,  refers  to  a  tube  passed  via  the  mouth  or  nose  into  the  trachea.
