- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The anaesthetists' perception of successful or not successful detection of oxygen flow by the device as recorded on a secure online study-specific questionnaire. [Immediately upon application of the intervention and for the duration of use of the mask.];Adverse events serious or non-serious. For example mechanical failure of the device posing an airway risk. A further example would be user technique error in the case of the device being difficult to interpret. Adverse events were to be logged by trained users of the device in the study and the overseeing study nurse and logged onto an online platform. In addition the senior investigator was available at all time in the event of a serious adverse event.[Immediately upon application of the intervention and for the duration of use of the mask.]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Oxygen delivery failure events as assessed and recorded by the anaesthetist administering supplemental oxygen with data entered via the online tool.[Immediately upon application of the intervention and for the duration of use of the mask.]
