Abstract

Rapid Sequence Induction (RSI) outside of the operating room has been associated with life threatening complications, such as pulmonary aspiration, acute hypoxemia, and hemodynamic instability that can lead to cardiac arrest. Adverse events related to RSI occur due to inadequate knowledge surrounding airway emergency management strategies, induction medications, emergency airway equipment, and effective communication. This Doctor of Nursing Practice project intends to recommend important additions to cognitive aids for non-anesthesia providers to utilize in the intensive care unit (ICU) and emergency department (ED), with the goal of reducing complications that occur during rapid sequence induction.
