Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The use of a written, pre-procedure checklist and positioning the patient with the head of the bed elevated have been proposed as interventions capable of preventing complications during non-elective intubation and are used intermittently in routine care -- however neither have been examined in a prospective trial.
