The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of setting airway pressure release valve (APL valve) on the anesthesia workstation to 5 cmH2O during spontaneous breathing on preoxygenation. In this prospective study healthy volunteers are randomized in cross-over between spontaneous breathing with the APL valve on spontaneous position or spontaneous breathing with the APL valve on 5 cmH2O or CPAP (continous positive airway pressure) mode with 5 cmH2O PEEP (positive end expiratory pressure).
This study aims to determine the duration for pre-oxygenation using THRIVE and facemask for parturients.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) for the preoxygenation of obese patients undergoing a general anesthesia. The HFNC interface is compared to a standard anesthesia FaceMask (FM) preoxygenation with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), the current gold standard procedure for obese induction. The interest of HFNC preoxygenation is to increase the "safe apnea time" before critical arterial desaturation, useful in the management of difficult airways, especially in subjects with reduced respiratory reserves such as the obese.
A trial comparing outcomes of two pre-oxygenation techniques in obstetric patients.
During preoxygenation, imperfect seal between the face mask and patient's face can induce an inward air leak decreasing its effectiveness. We assume that noninvasive ventilation could cancel the effect of the leak. This is a prospective study. Healthy volunteers are randomised in cross-over between spontaneous breathing or noninvasive ventilation pressure support preoxygenation in the presence or absence of a calibrated leak on the inspiratory circuit.
Improvement of oxygenation during apnoea by i-THRIVE Infant Transnasal Humidified Rapid Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange A single-centre prospective randomized controlled trial.
The UMOX is a device that has been designed as an alternative to the conventional face mask for preoxygenation to be used when an optimal preoxygenation with a facemask is difficult to achieve(i.e: when a leak is present. A previous study in our hospital (unpublished data) has shown that the UMOX was only as effective as the conventional mask when a nose clip was used to prevent the patients from breathing in some air through the nose, thus preventing the dilution/contamination of the 100% oxygen delivered.In that study, the verbal indication giving to the subjects to breathe through the mouth was better than no indication at all but still yielded unsatisfactory results. For this reason, the present study was designed to verify the hypothesis that while using the UMOX for preoxygenation, the verbal indication of breathing 8 vital capacity breaths added to the indication of breathing through the mouth would bring equivalent results -measured by the expired fraction of oxygen- as a preoxygenation of normal tidal breathing through a facemask during 3 to 5 minutes. Preoxygenation was performed with the 60 volunteers placed in the supine position with 100% oxygen. All volunteers went though preoxygenation with two techniques: 1) breathing normal tidal volumes at a normal respiratory rate for a period of 5 minutes through a tight fitting conventional face mask, and 2) eight deep breaths (i.e. vital capacity breaths) through the UMOX device with verbal indication to use only the mouth to breathe.
