Facial Mask Tightness: A Comparative Study

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Anesthesia
Interventions
Other: standard mask
Device: QuadraLite masks
Registration Number
NCT02778984
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Limoges
Brief Summary

A correct preoxygenation can be obtained after a 3min delay of calm ventilation through a tight mask thereafter mask is used to make the patient breathing before intubation. Most tight masks are actually sold but they have never been compared in studies. The aim of this study is to compare air leaks with standard facial mask and QuadraLite masks during preoxygenation and induction of anesthesia.

QuadraLite face masksQuadraLite masksThis study will compare tightness of 2 face masks during preoxygenation and after induction of anesthesia with propofol, sufentanil and rocuronium. During preoxygenation, a 10 l.min-1 fresh gas flow and 8 cm H2O PEEP will be applied. After induction of anesthesia, patients will receive pressure-controlled ventilation (fresh gaz flow 3 L.min-1, pressure set to obtain a 7 ml.kg-1 ideal body weight, 10 cpm, peep 5 cm H2O).
