The best hypnotic choice to optimize the balance between good intubation condition quality and hemodynamic stability during RSI performed in the operating theatre remained to be investigated. Therefore, a randomized study evaluating the efficacy of propofol, ketamine, and a combination of both is appropriate. So, we designed the HyPnotiKs randomized controlled study to investigate the efficacy of these hypnotic drugs in patients undergoing RSI in the operating theatre. The primary endpoint will be the successful tracheal intubation at the first attempt without major arterial hypotension event.
