Copyright© 2023, Wolters Kluwer
Become familiar with the recommendations and best-practice statements provided in this guideline, especially if you work in an acute care setting.
Labels should be added to NMB cases wherever they are available in the hospital. They should note the following: “WARNING: Causes respiratory arrest—patient must be ventilated” or “WARNING: Paralyzing agent—causes respiratory arrest” or “WARNING: Causes respiratory paralysis—patient must be ventilated” to clearly convey that respiratory arrest can occur and that, in cases of respiratory arrest, ventilator assistance will be needed.
