Tube Tip in Pharynx (TTIP) Ventilation-a Simple Rescue Technique in Limited Resource Settings.

Airway devices may be scarce in limited resource situations, such as prehospital settings or austere environments. Tube tip in pharynx (TTIP) ventilation is a simple, one-handed technique that may prove valuable for ensuring airway control in a life-threatening situation. The technique only requires a standard cuffed endotracheal tube and a self-inflating bag. This case report illustrates a scenario where both bag-valve-mask (BVM) ventilation and intubation failed, and the TTIP technique was utilized successfully several times during the case management. This case report illustrates that TTIP may be a useful technique, especially in limited resource settings. It is easy to learn, takes seconds to perform, and has minimal equipment requirements. The case report is reported according to the CARE guidelines. Informed consent from the patient is obtained.
