Reverse insertion method: insert the pharyngeal curved part of the oropharyngeal tube into the mouth to the palate, rotate it 180° when the inner orifice is close to the posterior wall of the oropharynx, and push it down to a suitable position when the patient inhales, fix it with tape after the ventilation is smooth.
