An incubation device (10) for incubating a patient with an endotracheal tube (12) comprises a housing (16) and a sheath (24) having one end connected to the housing (16) and a free end (26) extending away from it. The sheath (24) is inserted into the tube (12) until a light (28) at the sheath's free end (26) is at the tube's distal end (76). A clamp (46) secures the tube (12) to the housing (16) to prevent movement between the tube (12) and sheath (24). A tube stop (82) is then secured at the proximal end (86) of the tube (12). When the tube (12) is properly positioned in the patient, the light (28) will create a visible glow at the patient's sternal notch (130). The device (10) also includes a trocar wire (38) inserted into the sheath (24) for added stiffness.
