INtubation With Sedation Only to Preserve Independent Respiratory Effort Trial

Abstract

The INtubation with Sedation Only to Preserve Independent Respiratory Effort (INSPIRE) trial is a pragmatic, non-blinded, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial comparing the effect of intubation with sedation only (intervention group) versus intubation with sedation plus neuromuscular blockade (control group) among adults undergoing emergency tracheal intubation in the ED and ICU with regard to the outcomes of: (1) hypoxemia during intubation, (2) successful intubation on the first attempt, and (3) awake immobility and PTSD symptoms. Patients who are determined by treating clinicians to require emergency tracheal intubation and who meet eligibility criteria will be enrolled and randomly assigned to either intubation with sedation only or intubation with sedation plus neuromuscular blockade.
