1. A 75 kg patient with morbid obesity (BMI 42) undergoes
general anesthesia. After RSI with succinylcholine, you cannot
ventilate or intubate. The next best step is:
A) Repeat succinylcholine 1.5 mg/kg
B) Perform a surgical cricothyrotomy
C) Insert a supraglottic airway (SGA)
D) Attempt blind nasal intubation
Answer: C – Insert a supraglottic airway (SGA)
Rationale: In a cannot-ventilate-cannot-intubate (CVCI) scenario,
current difficult airway algorithms (ASA, 2022) prioritize placing
2
,an SGA as a rescue device before proceeding to surgical
3
, airway. Obesity increases risk, but SGA often restores
ventilation.
2. Which drug is most likely to cause masseter muscle rigidity
in children after rapid administration of succinylcholine?
A) Rocuronium
B) Vecuronium
C) Succinylcholine
D) Cisatracurium
Answer: C – Succinylcholine

especially in children, sometimes mimicking malignant
hyperthermia. It is dose- and rate-dependent.
