What do people mean by 'RSI'? How it looks now is quite different from the original description. Rapid sequence induction: a modern-day example of Theseus' Paradox? from 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘢 …-publications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

Cliff Reid 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘢 RSI is a topic that generates a lot of heat & noise. There’s a fair bit to agree with in this editorial - and despite having great respect for both authors I believe there’s a fair bit to disagree with too. At points the editorial seems to be intent on reductio ad absurdum My


Tim Cook Cliff Reid 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘢 Good points, Tim. The one point I would disagree with you on is about RCTs not being the answer. With appropriate enrichment strategies, a patient population that would stand to benefit from RSI components (e.g. cricoid pressure) could foreseeably be identified.

Balazs (🦋cannulaservice.hibalazs.net) Tim Cook Cliff Reid 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘢 Meaning that the non-cricoid and cricoid groups would end up balanced in terms of Table 1 data. Stratified randomisation can help ensure that is the case in smaller trials. Once you go big (e.g. >500), it should balance itself out.

It would also need to be done in patients genuinely at risk of aspiration (unlike Birenbaum et al) so the issues of ethics and equipoise are significant. …..but you’re the man!

Hans Huitink I bet very few people still know this in 2025, let alone are skilled in its use



This was one of Cliff Reid ’s talks at IncrEMentuM 2025: ➡️ Mental models in cardiac arrest care Sharp ideas and critical thinking. A lesson that stuck. 📅 See you in 2026.
