Journal Club #1 Delayed sequence intubation vs rapid sequence intubation in trauma
Update: 2024-10-18
Description
James and Rob cover a paper on DSI vs RSI in trauma patients. Essentially, does giving ketamine to dissociate patients for preoxygenation of 3 minutes prior to paralytic improve incidence of peri-intubation hypoxia and other adverse events.
Take home - ketamine in this population is typically hemodynamically neutral and maintains spontaneous breathing. Its use in trauma airway management can facilitate not only adequate preoxygenation, but also patient assessment, and other resuscitative measures before intubation.
