More support for our friend succinylcholine. In our ED, sugammadex (also has its own ADRs) is not readily available, no EEG monitoring & HR/BP are nonspecific & unreliable markers of adequate analgosedation— sux should be used for RSI as often as possible!
jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
⏰ Here’s a little timeline to keep in mind for RSI...
...and a board sharing when succinylcholine is contraindicated, to be mindful of situations where roc would be preferred ⚖️

🚨PSA: #iPhone users! Please set up #MedicalID on your phone-we can see your medical info even with your screen locked. This is SO HELPFUL when you come in and are unable to communicate with us after a terrible accident. 🚑😵 It can help save your life! (1/7)
You can put allergies on Medical ID, emergency contacts, medical conditions, medications you take, blood type, any random medical notes, even organ donation status (and if you aren’t registered, you can register super easily through the app! 🙌🏼) (2/7)
I look for it every time we get an unresponsive patient with an iPhone! Most people haven’t filled it out 😢💔 which is sad. Help us take the best care of you! Otherwise, we’re flying blind for quite a while when you first come in. (3/7)

Part 5 #Tramadont #tweetorial
(in which #Tramadont remains a hilariously accurate descriptor of tramadol!)
@NarouzeMD @EMARIANOMD @toby_ashken @DavidJuurlink

CYP2D6 & tramadol is not overrated at all.
Here is a picture of the tramadol metabolism pathway (PMID 11454734) (1/7)
We can agree that M1 is the metabolite which provides opioid analgesic effects. (PMID 10961373) (2/7)
M1 is metabolized by CYP3A4 & CYP2B6 (not CYP2D6 as you suggested) to M5. (PMID 24849324) (3/7)
