- Registration Number
- NCT02708862
- Lead Sponsor
- Hennepin Healthcare Research Institute
- Brief Summary
Four methods of preoxygenation will be compared in healthy volunteers
- Detailed Description
After informed consent, each volunteer will undergo the following techniques:
Simple mask at "flush" flow (40-60 L/min) Non-rebreather mask at 15 L/min Non-rebreather mask at 60 L/min Bag valve mask with one way exhalation valve at 15 L/min
After 3 minutes, the exhaled oxygen will be measured with an oxygen sensor

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Exhaled Oxygen Concentration Immediately after 3 minutes of oxygen supplementation Subjects will blow into an oxygen sensor after each method (arm). The primary outcome will be a non-inferiority test between bag valve mask and non-rebreather at 60 L/min. The remaining tests will be completed for comparison, but not part of formal statistical testing.
