急診 RSI 之前題 RSI 之步驟 : Overview

♦ AMPLE & anatomy ♦ Assume full stomach ♦ Prepare: SOAP-ME ♦ Assume IICP ♦ Preoxygenation: 100% O2 +/- BVM ♦ Assume difficult airway ♦ Premedications ♦ Act before respiratory failure or ♦ Paralysis ♦ Pressure: Sellick maneuver ♦ Pass the tube ♦ Check & secure the tube

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS Initial Assessment: History Anatomic Assessment

♦ Head: ♦ A-M-P-L-E – Trauma • Allergies ♦ Face / mouth: • Medications, drugs of abuse – Trauma, open mouth, tongue size, uvula, loose • Past medical problems, problems with teeth, dentures anesthesia ♦ Neck / C- spine: • Last meal – Trauma, masses / hematomas, short thick neck, • Events, including prehospital course tracheal shift ♦ Brief NE – Document any neurologic deficits before paralysis

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS

Preoxygenation Premedication

♦ Adequate ventilation ♦ Atropine – 100% O2 via non-rebreathing mask ♦ Lidocaine ♦ Inadequate spontaneous ventilation ♦ Sedatives – 100% O2 via BVM – Ketamine, BDZ, thiopental, fentanyl, ♦ Apnea without hypoxemia etomidate, proporfol – Up to 30 seconds ♦ Defasciculating agents – Vecuronium

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS

Atropine Lidocaine ♦ Function – Prevent / treat ♦ Blunt ICP response to intubation – Decrase secretions ♦ Indications ♦ Dose: – Age < 1Y – 1 mg/kg, slow IV push – Age < 5Y receiving succinylcholine (SCh) – 1 to 2 minutes before the paralytic drug – Any patient receiving a second dose of SCh – Any patient with bradycardia at time of intubation ♦ Dose: 0.02 mg/kg, min 0.1 mg, max 0.5 mg

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS Agents Thiopental

♦ Short-acting barbiturate ♦ Induce unconsciousness ♦ Benefits in head trauma – Minimize reflex responses to intubation – Decreases ICP ♦ Choice and dose – Blunts ICP response to intubation – Depend on clinical settings ♦ Myocardial depressant – Avoid or use low dose when or hypovolemia present ♦ Dose: 3-5 mg/kg IV

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS

Ketamine Ketamine – Dissociative anesthetic agent ♦ Hallucinations, nightmares, and "emergence – Unaware of surroundings reactions" – Analgesia and – Adolescents and adults – Maintains airway reflexes – BDZ may prevent emergence reactions – Cardiorespiratory stability: may increase ♦ Increase ICP BP, HR, cardiac output – Contraindicated in head trauma – Bronchodilating effect ♦ Increase oral & airway secretions – 1-2 mg/kg IV or 4-7 mg/kg IM – Can use in combination with atropine

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS

Benzodiazepines Fentanyl

♦ Sedative, amnestic, anticonvulsant properties ♦ Rapid-onset, short-acting narcotic ♦ No analgesic effects ♦ Potential uses in RSI ♦ Potential cardiovascular and respiratory depression – Sedative and induction agent ♦ has fastest onset, shortest – Dose for induction (2-10 ug/kg) of duration; dose = 0.1-0.2 mg/kg, max 5 mg unconsciousness much higher than dose for premedication or conscious ♦ Induction doses in RSI are much higher than usual doses for sedation

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS , Etomidate Paralysis: N-M Blockade

♦ Rapid onset, short duration ♦ Depolarizing agents ♦ Cerebral protective effects – Succinylcholine (SCh) ♦ Non-depolarizing agent ♦ Cardiovascular depression uncommon with etomidate – Vecuronium – Rocuronium ♦ Propofol may decrease BP – Pancuronium – Others

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS

Succinylcholine Succinylcholine

♦ Binds to ACh receptors on muscle and ♦ Increased intragastric pressure depolarizes muscle persistently ♦ Increased intraocular pressure ♦ Fastest onset ♦ Increased ICP ♦ Shortest duration – Mechanism unclear – Prevent or blunt with: ♦ Dose: • Lidocaine – 1.0-1.5 mg/kg (BW > 10 kg) • Induction agents – 1.5-2.0 mg/kg (BW < 10 kg) • Small dose nondepolarizing NMB agent

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS

Succinylcholine Nondepolarizing NMB Agents

♦ Bradycardia ♦ Compete with ACh for muscle ACh – Premedicate young children with atropine receptors ♦ – Sympathetic stimulation ♦ No muscle stimulation or fasciculations ♦ ♦ Slower onset, longer duration than SCh – Develops several days after burns, massive ♦ Usually given before induction agent muscle trauma, neurologic injuries, various because of slower onset neuromuscular diseases ♦ Fasciculations – Pain, increase intragastric / intraocular pressure

APLS + PALS APLS + PALS Vecuronium (1) Vecuronium (2)

♦ May be used as paralyzing agent in RSI, Purpose Dose, mg/kg Onset Duration, min especially if SCh contraindicated Defasciculation 0.01 ♦ Minimal cardiovascular effects ♦ “Standard” dose: 0.1 mg/kg RSI 0.2-0.3 60-90 90-120 sec ♦ RSI dose: 0.2 to 0.3 mg/kg, has faster Paralysis after 0.1 2-3 min 25-40 action and prolonged duration intubation ♦ Defasciculating dose: 0.01 mg/kg
