FCEM-0708

A 22-year-old with a history of brittle asthma is brought to the ED by her partner. She is wheezing and very short of breath and her condition is deteriorating rapidly. Following a series of nebulisations, hydrocortisone and IV magnesium sulphate, she is taken to resus and the intensive care team is called to review her. She is severely hypoxic and confused and a decision is made to intubate her.

Which of these drugs is ideal as an induction agent in this patient?
