Clinical Trial Summary

This RCT is testing the efficacy of apneic oxygenation during endotracheal intubation in the emergency department. Currently the standard practice in the ED when performing endotracheal intubation is that some providers use apneic oxygenation (the application of a nasal cannula at 15LPM) throughout the intubation procedure, while others do not apply apneic oxygenation. Initial literature in the operating room showed that apneic oxygenation helps prevent desaturation during the procedure. However, the latest literature conducted in critical care settings (one study in the ICU and one in the ED) questions the efficacy of this intervention in critically ill patients; however, no harm has been shown. Our study aims to test this intervention further by adding in a special subset of patients that was excluded from prior studies, precipitous intubations, or those patients that have to be intubated quickly and cannot have adequate pre-oxygenation. We hypothesize that apneic oxygenation will be more efficacious in this subset than in the overall ED population. We will randomize patients requiring endotracheal intubation into intervention (apneic oxygenation) and control (no apneic oxygenation). We will measure the lowest arterial oxygen saturation from the start of the intubation procedure through 2 minutes after intubation is complete.
