Abstract
Background: Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI) and Delayed Sequence Intubation (DSI) are critical techniques used in emergency departments for airway management. The choice of technique can significantly impact patient outcomes, particularly in critical care scenarios. Objective: This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of RSI and DSI in emergency department settings, focusing on intubation success rates, incidence of complications, and overall patient outcomes. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted involving 200 patients requiring emergency airway management at a tertiary care center. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either RSI or DSI. Data on intubation success, complication rates, and patient outcomes were collected and analyzed statistically.
