It's my strong personal opinion that all reversible methods are explored before irreversible procedures are considered! Back To Top

General anesthesia often results in the loss of the ability to breathe on your own. There are different ways to assist your breathing - one of which is the breathing tube (known as an endotracheal tube).

I use Adobe Illustrator, a high-end vector-based graphics program. Believe it or not, creating those little stick figures require an expensive design program and years of experience. Illustrator gives me the smooth blocks of color and nice lines that I think add a lot to the OOTS look.
