Drug Assisted Intubation Case Study
I think that drug assisted intubation should be kept in the field only if the medics are properly trained.

In my opinion, drug assisted intubation in the field should be only in severe cases. When you paralyze a patient, you are opting for all of their functions to be dependent upon you, which can sometimes be dangerous.
