Abstract
The best choice for Patients who need intubation in the emergency ward is rapid sequence intubation in order to reduce laryngoscopic adverse effect and to have better condition for intubation. Lidocaine is one of the drugs used in premedication before induction and paralysis to attenuate laryngoscopic sympathetic reflex. We present a patient that had an episode of seizure immediately after administering lidocaine intravenously during rapid sequence intubation, not reported before.
