Hyperthermia is a reported risk, and it is unclear whether this is malignant hyperthermia or hyperthermia related to increased metabolism. Given the uncertainty, avoidance of anticholinergics as well as medications with increased risk of inducing malignant hyperthermia such as succinylcholine and halothane should be avoided. Awake intubations using topical anesthesia or video laryngoscopy with ketamine, propofol, remifentanil and/or rocuronium can be considered. Use of an intubating laryngeal mask (LMA) is an additional consideration. The head and neck must be maintained in a neutral position given the heightened fracture risks.
