Why is airway management so important in the NeuroICU?• Hypoxemia contributes to secondary brain injury• Brain injured patients have numerous reasons to have
airway compromise• You should have an understanding of basic airway
management to aid in your patient’s care

• Study by Rincon et al looked at ARDS/ALI in TBI• Prevalence of 22% with mortality of 28%• Significant increase in prevalence over the past 20 years• More common in young white males

• Respiratory infections in 68% of severe TBI patients• Mortality not increased but hospital LOS, time on
mechanical ventilation increased

Succinylcholine• Only depolarizing NMB• Avoid in hyperkalemia, 24 hour post major burn,
neuromuscular disease, patients with several days of ICU critical illness
• Onset in 60 seconds and lasts around 5 minutes• 1-1.5mg/kg
![Page 41: AIRWAY MANAGEMENT IN THE ICU Rachel Garvin, MD Assistant Professor, Neurosurgery Neurocritical Care October 5, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ebd5503460f94bc638e/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Rocuronium• Nondepolarizing• Onset about 90 seconds and last 30-40 minutes• Lasts longer in those with hepatic impairment• Dose is 0.6-1mg/kg• Effect is dose dependent
![Page 42: AIRWAY MANAGEMENT IN THE ICU Rachel Garvin, MD Assistant Professor, Neurosurgery Neurocritical Care October 5, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ebd5503460f94bc638e/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Vecuronium• Similar to rocuronium• Slower onset time (up to 4 minutes)• Lasts 40-60 minutes• 0.08-0.1mg-kg
![Page 43: AIRWAY MANAGEMENT IN THE ICU Rachel Garvin, MD Assistant Professor, Neurosurgery Neurocritical Care October 5, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649ebd5503460f94bc638e/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Conclusion• Appropriate airway management is crucial in patients with
brain injury• Remember your airway anatomy and assessment in
patient evaluation• Use your adjuncts to help you• Be vigilant in the drugs being given to your patients if
intubation is required
