Educational Pearls:

Induction agent selection during rapid sequence intubation involves accounting for hemodynamic stability in the post-intubation setting
Many emergency departments use ketamine or etomidate
A recent study sought to explore the rates of post-induction hypotension of ketamine compared with propofol
- Single center retrospective cohort study of patients between 2018-2021
Ketamine and propofol were both significantly associated with post-induction hypotension
- Ketamine adjusted odds ratio = 4.50
- Propofol adjusted odds ratio = 4.88
- 50% of patients became hypotensive after induction with either propofol or ketamine
These findings suggest post-induction hypotension is mainly due to sympatholysis rather than the choice of agent itself
