Rapid sequence induction: a questionnaire survey of its routine conduct and continued management during a failed intubation.

摘要: Two hundred and ten obstetric anaesthetists completed a questionnaire assessing how they would perform rapid sequence induction of anaesthesia for Caesarean section their continued management during failed tracheal intubation. The survey revealed considerable variation in the timing application cricoid pressure, choice dose drugs used administration. difficult intubation also varied. This variability was independent both grade anaesthetist frequency practice. There appear to be at least two distinct techniques current practice, characterised by 'fast' or 'slow' induction. Rapid is clearly not standard technique debate necessary clarify risks benefits its components. In particular, rapidity pressure may contribute increased incidence anaesthesia.
