our usual practice here at my institution is when we are called to tube in a code, we tube w/o giving any medication cause the idea is an arrested patient is relaxed and out of it. However recently I noticed a couple ppl trained elsewhere giving succinylcholine in a code prior to intubation. What do you do at your place of practice? Do you give succinylcholine in case the CPR and ventilation is so good that the muscle is not relaxed??
