Out‐of‐hospital Rapid‐sequence Induction for Intubation of the Pediatric Patient

Abstract

1) Rapid-sequence induction is an effective method for obtaining airway control in the critically ill pediatric patient. 2) Intubation mishaps did not influence the rate of pulmonary complications. 3) Omission of atropine was associated with bradycardia during RSI in pediatric patients.
