Ketamine 10mg / ml
Fentanyl
Rocuronium
Midazolam
Beriplex
Intralipid
A combination of time critical and hard to locate.
The first four obviously have CD restrictions, and it depends how difficult it will be to access them in a hurry when under lock and key. ( i am thinking of one Australian hospital I worked in, Sux and midazolam were pre-drawn daily to sit on the counter in resus. On one occasion two likely lads stole them and made off for the toilet. Only one of them survived. )

We have our anaesthetics in a separate box for RSI, I found it having Beriplex one adult dose quite handy for high INR intracranial bleed patients as this will take a bit of time for our blood bank to issue, having a bag of intralipid is a good idea (no need for the fridge). Works for both severe local anaesthetic toxicity and severe TCA poisoning. Lorazepam for obvious reason. Naloxone but we keep it in our resus trolly so it may not be relevant.
