Rocuronium versus succinylcholine for rapid sequence induction intubation.
BACKGROUND Patients requiring emergency endotracheal intubation often require a rapid sequence induction (RSI) intubation technique to protect against aspiration or increased intracranial pressure, or to facilitate intubation. Succinylcholine is the most commonly used muscle relaxant because of its fast onset and short duration; unfortunately, it can have serious side effects. Rocuronium has be...
متن کاملTracheal intubation with rocuronium using a "modified timing principle"
BACKGROUND Rapid sequence induction (RSI) is indicated in various situations. Succinylcholine has been the muscle relaxant of choice for RSI, and rocuronium has become an alternative medicine for patients who cannot be administered succinylcholine for various reasons. Although rocuronium has the most rapid onset time among non-depolarizing muscle relaxants, the standard dose of rocuronium (0.6 ...
متن کاملRapid sequence induction and intubation with rocuronium-sugammadex compared with succinylcholine: a randomized trial.
BACKGROUND An unanticipated difficult airway may arise during rapid sequence induction and intubation (RSII). The aim of the trial was to assess how rapidly spontaneous ventilation could be re-established after RSII. We hypothesized that the time period from tracheal intubation to spontaneous ventilation would be shorter with rocuronium-sugammadex than with succinylcholine. METHODS This rando...
متن کاملSuccinylcholine versus rocuronium for rapid sequence intubation in intensive care: a prospective, randomized controlled trial
INTRODUCTION Succinylcholine and rocuronium are widely used to facilitate rapid sequence induction (RSI) intubation in intensive care. Concerns relate to the side effects of succinylcholine and to slower onset and inferior intubation conditions associated with rocuronium. So far, succinylcholine and rocuronium have not been compared in an adequately powered randomized trial in intensive care. A...
متن کاملPrecurarization with Rocuronium Prevents Succinylcholine induced Hyperkalemia
Background: To assess the effects of Rocuronium pretreatment on Succinylcholine induced rise in serum potassium. Methods: In this randomized controlled experimental study, sixty adults ASA I or II patients who presented for elective general surgical procedures were included. The patients were divided in two groups of thirty each by a simple randomization. Group "A" received succinylcholine and ...
