AllUse of impedance threshold device during spontaneous ventilationAll subjects will undergo spontaneous ventilation through an impedance threshold device and ScvO2 will be recorded before and after
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Estimated venous oxygen saturationFrom 5 to 6:59 minutes after applying the impedance threshold device

Oxygen saturation will be calculated from the five minute period of time prior to use of the impedance threshold device (0-4 mins), and then again in the 2 minute period after the impedance threshold device is applied (5-6 mins)
