# How do I add mucus to my Avtrach’s mucus chamber?

Load the mucus into the device by attaching the mucus tubing to the syringe of mucus. Insert into the tracheostomy until you hit the carina sensor and feel the buzz. (You can confirm that the carina sensor has been triggered by checking the Avkin app for an alert.)  Insert 5ml of mucus the first time you fill the mucus chamber for the day, and 2ml of mucus after each simulation.
