Abstract
Aim:YouTube videos, which are used as sources of information, can also be an essential resource in intubation training. For this reason, we aimed to investigate the content, adequacy, and reliability of the training videos on intubation in our searches in Turkish and English.
 Material and Method: This study was carried out between8 May to 9 May 2021by searching Youtube in Turkish and English with 'entubation' and 'intubation.' Forty four videos that met the inclusion criteria were included. Intubation indication, explanation of complications, number of views, number of likes, video power index (likes ratio*view rate/100) were recorded in the video content. Ten items were scored over ten total points after the subject content was evaluated.
 Results:Although the number of views, the number of likes, and the power index values were higher in English videos, the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). No significant difference was found between Turkish and English videos in the quality evaluation (p>0.05). Although it was seen that the approach to the patient diagnosed with Covid-19 (30.4% vs. 9.5%) and the pediatric approach (8.7% vs. 0.0%) were mentioned at higher rates in the English videos, no significant difference was detected (p>0.05).
 Conclusions:Video sharing on endotracheal intubation in Turkish and English has similar features. Educational videos are shared in Turkish, especially by academic institutions.

Summary
Curry performed the first human cadaver intubation in 1792. Magill first applied intubation in 1920 to give anesthesia. It was used for the first time in Turkey by Dr Burhaneddin Toker and Dr Sadi Sun in 1949 [1]. It is crucial to make the necessary preparations for intubation, position the head and neck appropriately, and place the laryngoscope correctly. When done correctly and quickly, without causing morbidity, intubation is life-saving by providing a reliable airway. It is an essential part of in-service training for every healthcare worker to acquire intubation skills [1,2,3,4]
