replace the oral ventilator keeping Jahi's heart beating with a tracheal tube

Somebody help me out here. I thought oral ventilators simply kept the lungs functioning. Is there such thing as an oral ventilator that keeps the heart pumping?

Exactly. Reporting is so poor that no one reading reports can know what the actual situation is, despite the omniscient experts on this thread.

By providing circulating oxygen the heart continues to pump.
