Evaluating the effects of propofol and ketamine on heart stability during intubation

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study investigates how the anesthetic agents propofol and ketamine affect the risk of cardiovascular collapse in critically ill patients undergoing endotracheal intubation. It focuses on the hemodynamic stability of patients, comparing the incidence of severe hypotension and cardiac arrest associated with each agent. The study also analyzes various shock indices to provide insights into the cardiovascular effects of these induction agents during the intubation process.
