Abstract
The inability to maintain airway patency or inadequate oxygenation and ventilation is an emergency situation and an indication for an advanced airway. The quickest and most effective means of establishing a definitive airway is through rapid sequence intubation (RSI). RSI is a requisite skill for practitioners in the air medical and land critical care transport setting. Although these providers have been shown to have a higher first-attempt success rate for tracheal intubation in the prehospital setting compared with other prehospital providers, their rates of first-attempt success are lower than intubations performed in the emergency department by physicians.
