AB Delayed  sequence  intubation  (DSI)  is  an  alternative  technique  in  optimization  of  preoxygenation  for  noncompliant  patients  with  altered  mental  status.  The  technique  is  designed  to  improve  preoxygenation  by  providing  controlled  sedation.1  The  current  evidence  consists  of  data  from  small  studies  of  patients  sedated  with  ketamine  and  successfully  preoxygenated  and  intubated.1-6  DSI  evidence  is  based  on  a  small  series  of  cases.  This  technique  can  be  successful  for  many  patients,  including  those  with  asthma.
