No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether rebreathing for a short time (a bit like breathing into a paper bag) will stimulate faster breathing and thus make the giving of Oxygen more effective.

The hypothesis is that the investigators method (rebreathing) will be faster than the current method of administering Oxygen.
