COVID-19 RSI kits, crash carts

Please share you medication process/protocol for RSI meds and crash carts. Specifically, are you considering special carts or bags to be used in negative pressure, isolation rooms or COVID-designated OR's to minimize room entries? Has Anesthesia requested anything outside of your usual RSI kit or crash cart? How would you handle the contaminated med kits and unused medications?
