Description
Pragmatic Trial Examining Oxygenation prior to Intubation (PREOXI) One-in-ten emergency tracheal intubations is complicated by life-threatening hypoxemia. Administering supplemental oxygen prior to induction and intubation (“preoxygenation”) decreases the risk of life-threatening hypoxemia. In our current clinical practice, the common methods for preoxygenation is facemask oxygen. Prior trials comparing non-invasive positive pressure ventilation and facemask oxygen for preoxygenation have been small and have yielded conflicting results.
Objectives
To compare the effect of preoxygenation with non-invasive positive pressure ventilation versus preoxygenation with facemask oxygen on hypoxemia during tracheal intubation of critically ill adults.
