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.

Conditions

• High Flow Oxygen in Rapid Sequence Induction
• Airway Morbidity

Interventions
