Management strategies from intubation (e.g., rapid sequence intubation, emergency airway management) to observation\/no intubation (e.g., high flow nasal oxygen, observation, monitoring, recovery position) were included. Studies are needed to describe an approach to airway management in overdose patients with decreased consciousness, which included all primary research. Outcomes included predictors of intubation, mortality, hospital admission, length of stay and complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      With the assistance of a Systematic Review Accelerator, we searched PubMed, Cochrane CENTRAL and Embase.
