    This study presents a rapid anesthesia technique for full stomach patients to prevent regurgitation and vomiting. The method achieves quick intubation times, reducing the risk period and eliminating the need for mask ventilation or cricoid pressure.

    Area of Science:

    • Anesthesiology
    • Surgical Procedures

    Background:

    • Patients with a full stomach present a high risk of regurgitation and vomiting during anesthesia induction.
    • Conventional rapid sequence induction may not always be sufficient to mitigate these risks effectively.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate a modified rapid anesthesia induction technique for preventing regurgitation and vomiting in full stomach patients.
    • To assess the efficacy and safety of this technique in achieving rapid tracheal intubation.

    Main Methods:

    • A total of 250 rapid induction anesthesias were performed using intravenous morphine and droperidol, followed by voluntary hyperventilation and rapid administration of suxamethonium and thiopentone.
    • The technique aimed for intubation before complete muscle relaxation, within a mean of 35 seconds.

    Main Results:

    • The mean intubation time was 35 seconds.
    • The period of maximum regurgitation risk was reduced to 15 seconds.
    • Mask ventilation and cricoid pressure were rendered unnecessary with this technique.

    Conclusions:

    • This rapid anesthesia induction technique is effective in preventing regurgitation and vomiting in full stomach patients.
    • The method is suitable for young, healthy adults but contraindicated in elderly, infirm, or cardiac patients.
