Measure
Standard Face Mask Preoxygenation
Tidal volume breathing via a face mask set at 100% oxygen and a rate of 15L/min. Face Mask preoxygenation: Standard face mask preoxygenation.
Optiflow Preoxygenation
Tidal volume breathing with the OptiFlow system applied at 100% oxygen and a flow rate of 30-70L/min. OptiFlow preoxygenation: Preoxygenation using transnasal humidified rapid insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE).
