Respected user , Hi

Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly .

* In a patient in cath lab operated for 3 stents , may have sudden
breathing problem from the cardiac event usually where there is
severe compromise to the coronary circulation giving breathing
difficulties .

* Immediate unavailability of expert anesthetic on the spot is not
acceptable on expert medical grounds .

* Trials needed to intubate may happen in any high level set up due to
many factors on the patient level itself .

Hope this will help you for sure .
Regards .
