Conditions

Rapid Sequence Induction and Intubation, Tracheal Intubation

Brief summary

This clinical trial aims to understand the effect of the order of administration of Neuromuscular Blocking Agents (NMBAs) and sedatives on the success rate of intubation during Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI) in the emergency department. The main questions to be answered include: 1. The impact of sequential drug administration order during rapid sequence induction (RSI) on first-pass intubation success rates. 2. Time to successful intubation 3. Hypoxia incidence (SpO₂ \<90%) 4. Risk of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) 5. Procedure-related complications

Interventions

PROCEDUREDrug Sequence

Control: Sedative ( Propofol ) →within 30s→ NMBA ( Rocuronium ) → Intubation → 5min → Measure vital signs → After treatment → Remove tracheal intubation→ Recall of intubation Intervention: NMBA ( Rocuronium ) →within 30s→ Sedative(Propofol) → Intubation → 5min → Measure vital signs → After treatment → Remove tracheal intubation→ Recall of intubation
