Brief Summary

Hypoxemia refers to low blood oxygen levels, while hypoxia denotes low tissue oxygen levels. Both conditions pose life-threatening risks when precautions are not adequately taken or when risks are not effectively managed. Intubation represents a critical phase that can lead to a decrease in arterial oxyhemoglobin levels. Two frequently employed techniques for preoxygenation and ventilation during intubation are bag-valve mask (BVM) ventilation and noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV). The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BMV and the NIMV.

Study Arms (2)

bag-valve mask ventilation

EXPERIMENTAL

Preoxygenation was administered utilizing a Compower (Fujian, China) BVM equipped with an oxygen reservoir, coupled with a correctly fitted oronasal mask. This preoxygenation procedure spanned three minutes, with an oxygen flow rate set at 15 liters per minute.

Device: Bag-valve maskDevice: Noninvasive mechanical ventilation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Preoxygenation was conducted over a three-minute period using NIMV employing a properly fitted oronasal mask. This was facilitated by the Servo S (Maquet, Solna, Sweden) mechanical ventilator operating in pressure support mode. The preoxygenation protocol entailed the administration of 100% FiO2, applying Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) set at 5 cmH2O, delivering breaths at a frequency of 15 per minute, and providing a tidal volume ranging between 6 to 8 ml/kg of body weight.
