High Flow Oxygen With THRIVE Gives Better Oxygenation in Rapid Sequence Induction Patients

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Airway Morbidity; High Flow Oxygen in Rapid Sequence Induction

• Registration Number: NCT02777840
• Lead Sponsor: St George's, University of London

Brief Summary

High flow oxygen results in better oxygenation in emergency cases needing rapid sequence induction for anaesthesia. Secondary outcome measure is time for any desaturation.

Detailed Description

The investigators intend to do the study using high flow oxygen for all emergency cases needing rapid sequence induction. As part of the study the Investigators will measure the oxygen levels in the blood gas sample of the patient and the heart rate of anesthetist in charge of the airway management. After the airway is secured the time for desaturation will be noted.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Oxygen levels in blood gas sample	intraoperative	Oxygen levels in blood gas sample after the airway is secured

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
heart rate of anaesthetist performing the intubation	During the process of induction of anaesthesia and intubation upto 5 minutes post intubation
time to desaturation	intraoperative or 10 minutes after intubation	after airway is secured time will be noted for oxygen levels to fall to 92% before the ventilation is started.
