Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary objective is to assess the difference in partial pressure of oxygen, after 3 min of preoxygenation in patients preoxygenated with HFNO vs patients preoxygenated with bag mask ventilationTimepoint: The difference in partial pressure of oxygen will be noted by taking arterial blood sample after three minutes of pre oxygenation
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. Difference in partial pressure of oxygen.Timepoint: After intubation;2. Difference in end tidal O2Timepoint: After intubation;3. Incidence of hypoxemic events(SpO2 92%)Timepoint: Number of Events until intubation;4. Tolerability of high flow nasal canula by patients, i.e., if patients request to reduce flow or feeling of dryness, itching etc.Timepoint: Till induction;5.Time taken to successful intubationTimepoint: After Intubation;6. Any complications until following intubation like arrhythmiasTimepoint: After intubation;7. Reoxygenation time defined as the time taken for SpO2 to return to 100% after mechanical ventilation.Timepoint: After initiation of Mechanical ventilation
