Word History

Etymology

in- entry 2 + tube + -ation

Note: The term intubation was probably introduced in 1885, in the article "Treatment of Croup" by the Illinois physician Frank E. Waxham (The Chicago Medical Journal and Examiner, vol. 1, no. 6, June, 1885, p. 476). Waxham credits the use of tubes introduced into the trachea as an alternative to tracheotomy to the American physician Joseph O'Dwyer (1841-98). O'Dwyer published an initial report on the procedure as "Intubation of the Larynx," The New York Medical Journal, vol. 42, issue o August 8, 1885, pp. 145-47. O'Dwyer also uses tubage for the technique, after the French term used by the physician Eugène Bouchut, who published an earlier description ("D'une nouvelle méthode de traitement du croup par le tubage du larynx," Bulletin de l'Académie de Médecine, tome 23 [1858], pp. 1160-62).
