We'll be discussing ketamine and etomidate for hemodynamically unstable patients for rapid sequence intubation? Induction agents are an essential component of rapid sequence intubation. They work synergistically with neuromuscular blockers. As the paralytics relax the vocal cords for optimal conditions as the endotracheal tubes is being passed, induction agents provide amnesia and make the patient unconscious. That is an important thing to mention.
How much drug does the patient really need when they're body is barely hanging on? There is such a thing as drug toxicities and we want to keep it safe. Let's briefly review these two agents.
