description Endotracheal intubation used as a method of cardiopulmonal resuscitation and advanced life support in a field condition frequently represents a problem even to very experienced resuscitatiors because of its extremly complex circumstances. The author’s aim of this work is to suggest his own way of the patient’s intubation in a field condition by the application of the method which has not been described in the literature yet. A several dozen of patients have been intubated by this method in such conditions which did not represent even the minimum for intubation done in a conventional way, but they were enough to prove our method. Maximum performing time for the sample was 15 seconds. We consider that, using this method, the endo-tracheal intubation can be realized in all conditions up to now thought untouchable. This method requires only 30 to 35 cm wider space than patient’s shoulders occupate and 20 to 30 cm extra of his height. The only noted inadequacy is the risk in spine injury intubation, but with more careful treatment it can be avoided. Key words: Endotracheal intubation, cardiopul-monal resuscitation, field condition, restrained space.
