Complications of emergency intubation with and without
paralysis.
Li J, Murphy-Lavoie H, Bugas C, Martinez J, Preston C.
Accident Room, Charity Hospital, New Orleans, LA, USA.
Expert and definitive airway management is fundamental to the practice of
emergency medicine. In critically ill patients, rapid sedation and paralysis,
also known as rapid-sequence intubation, is used to facilitate endotracheal
intubation in order to minimize aspiration, airway trauma, and other
complications of airway management. An alternative method of emergent
endotracheal intubation, intubation minus paralysis, is performed without the
use of neuromuscular blocking agents. The present study compared complications
of these two techniques in the emergency setting. Sixty-seven intubations minus
paralysis were prospectively compared with 166 rapid-sequence intubations.
Complications were greater in number and severity in the nonparalyzed group and
included aspiration (15%), airway trauma (28%), and death (3%). None of these
difficulties were observed in the rapid-sequence group (P < .0001). These
results show that rapid-sequence intubation when compared with intubation minus
paralysis significantly reduces complications of emergency airway management and
should be made available to emergency physicians trained in its use.
