Podcast 689: Peri-Intubation Hypotension

Contributor: Ricky Dhaliwal, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Hypotension in patients requiring intubation should be resuscitated as much as possible
  • While intubating, the negative inspiratory pressure goes away decreasing cardiac preload and worsening hypotension
  • Phenylephrine can be given via push doses to increase blood pressure from alpha agonism
  • For sedation, avoid propofol with hypotension and opt for etomidate or ketamine
