Brief Summary

The aim of this research would be to determine the efficacy and effects of preoxygenation when performed by the patient (mask held by the patient).

This is the concept of "self-preoxygenation".

Detailed Description

Pre-oxygenation is a fundamental element of the induction sequence in anesthesia, described and recommended since 1955. Numerous studies have examined and compared the various techniques for implementing this procedure in terms of duration, objectives, equipment, patient characteristics and conditions. None of them specifies who should hold the mask when carrying out this recommendation. In everyday practice, patients are often asked to hold the mask themselves. A preliminary survey showed that 86% of patients are offered this option. The professionals questioned cited relational reasons (83%) above all, but also organizational reasons (43%).

To Evaluate the efficacity of the self-preoxygenation Assessing the effectiveness of auto-preoxygenation

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
APAIS anxiety scoreAt arrival in the Day Surgery Unit - Day 1

Percentage of patients with a total APAIS anxiety score greater than 10/20 in women, 12/20 in men on arrival in the operating room

Visual analog anxiety scale (VAS-A) scoreAt discharge from the Day Surgery Unit - Day 1

Percentage of patients with a decrease in the visual analog anxiety scale score (VAS-A) between arrival and discharge in the Day Surgery Unit.

Assessing the effect of self-preoxygenation on preoperative anxiety

Visual analog comfort scale (VAS-C) scoreAt discharge from the Day Surgery Unit - Day 1

Percentage of patients having obtained a visual analog comfort scale (VAS-C) score greater than 5 out of 10 upon discharge from the Day Surgery Unit.

Assessing the effect of self-preoxygenation on comfort
