Multicentre study of preoxygenation practices by anaesthesia providers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A total of 155 consecutive anaesthetics in three public Malaysian hospitals were prospectively studied to assess preoxygenation practices by their anaesthesia providers. Preoxygenation was practised in 96.1% of patients. Specialist and non-specialist anaesthesiologist did not preoxygenate 8.8% and 2.3% of their patients, respectively. Overall incidence of arterial oxygen desaturation during induction was 15.5%. Arterial oxygen desaturation occurred more frequently with emergency surgery (30.2%) in comparison to elective surgery (9.8%). Arterial oxygen desaturation occurred more frequently with non-specialist (18.9%) than specialist anaesthesia providers (3.0%).

Drawover anaesthesia and preoxygenation.
We have studied the efficacy of preoxygenation using the Triservice Anaesthetic Apparatus (TSA) in healthy patients and found it to be unsatisfactory. An alternative technique suitable for field use was explored. The Mapleson D system (Bain) was found to be suitable for preoxygenation with a fresh gas flow of only 4 litre of oxygen per minute. In a randomized study using only 4 litre of oxygen ...
متن کاملVital capacity and tidal volume preoxygenation with a mouthpiece.
We have measured oxygen wash-in in 20 volunteers undergoing preoxygenation with a face mask, mouthpiece alone and a mouthpiece with a noseclip, in a crossover study. Tidal volume breathing and maximal deep breath techniques were studied with each type of equipment. When tidal volume breathing was used, the face mask and mouthpiece with noseclip were comparable, but the mouthpiece alone achieved...
متن کاملPreoxygenation in children using expired oxygraphy.
We performed preoxygenation on 25 patients, aged 1-12 yr. End-tidal oxygen sampling was used to find the duration of preoxygenation required to reach an end-tidal oxygen fraction of 0.9. All children reached this end-point within 80 s, which was markedly more rapid than that observed in adult subjects. The clinical applications of this form of monitoring in children are discussed.
متن کاملComparison of four methods of preoxygenation.
We studied four different techniques of preoxygenation in 20 healthy volunteers, by continuous analysis of respired gases. Three minutes of tidal breathing from a Magill breathing system or four vital capacity breaths from a non-rebreathing system were found to be equally effective, whereas four vital capacity breaths from a Magill breathing system were less effective. Maximal expiration before...

We have compared an alternative breathing system for preoxygenation comprising a Hudson face mask with high oxygen inflow (48 litre min-1) and a Mapleson A breathing system (100 ml kg-1 min-1). The study consisted of two parts: the first involved adult volunteers (10 male, seven female) and the second part used a lung model for spontaneous ventilation with a sinusoidal ventilatory wave pattern....
