Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •subjects requiring rapid sequence intubation for whom rocuronium is chosen as the paralytic agent.
- •the operator chooses to place a peripheral intravenous or powered intraosseous catheter to permit rapid sequence intubation.
Exclusion Criteria
- •subjects in whom vascular access for rapid sequence intubation drug administration was established prior to arrival to the emergency department.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Time from determination of need for vascular access for rapid sequence intubation to administration of first does of paralytic agent.
Time Frame: during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average expected time frame 30 minutes
Time from vascular access to intubation first attempt, as indicated by the first attempt to visualize the larynx with the laryngoscope.
Time Frame: during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average expected time frame 30 minutes
time from vascular access to successful intubation
Time Frame: during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average expected time frame 30 minutes
number of attempts necessary for successful intubation
Time Frame: during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average expected time frame 30 minutes
Secondary Outcomes
- Intubation difficulty(during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average time frame 30 minutes)
- operator satisfaction with intubating conditions(during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average time frame 30 minutes)
- failure rate of endotracheal intubation(during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average time frame 30 minutes)
- Time from presentation of patient to vascular access established(during rapid sequence intubation procedure, average time frame 30 minutes)
- Determine the incidence of short term catheter related complications for each technique(during emergency department stay, average time frame 24 hours)
