10In trauma patients with high shock index, the investigators compare the effects on hemodynamics between ketamine and etomidate.
In trauma patients, rapid sequence intubation is recommended. The drug of choice, however, has been debated. One cohort comparative study showed ketamine had benefit in hemodynamics compared to etomidate in trauma patients. One observational study showed in high shock index patients, ketamine showed maintain systolic blood pressure. And other retrospective showed less clinical hypotension was less in ketamine. However there is no randomized controlled study comparing ketamine and etomidate in trauma patients. The purpose of this study is comparing the effects of hemodynamics between ketamine and etomidate in high shock index trauma patients.
