Summary

To study the effect of high flow nasal cannula in comparisons with nasoprong used intraoperatively in patients oxygenation status

Detailed description

To observe the effect of high flow nasal cannula used intraoperatively compared to normal oxygen therapy (nasoprong) at a same fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) in elderly patients who are going for orthopaedic surgeries under central neuraxial block. oxygenation will be access with intermittent blood gas. atelectasis will be access via chest x-ray , compared to a baseline chest x-ray, validated by a blinded radiologist

Conditions

• Hypoxemia During Surgery
• Atelectasis

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	high flow nasal cannula	high flow nasal cannula provides heated and humidified gas to the airways via nasal prongs at a prescribed accurate fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) ranging from 0.21 to 1.0 and with a higher flow rate of up to 60 litres per minute
DEVICE	nasoprong oxyen 2Litres per minute	nasoprong @L/min will deliver approximately a FiO2 of 0.3. subsequently, if incremental O2 is needed, patient will be provided with ventimask 40% and so forth
