Effect of supraglottic jet oxygenation and ventilation on hypoxemia in patients undergoing endoscopic surgery with sedation: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. J Clin Anesth 2024; 97:111559. [PMID: 39047532 DOI: 10.1016/j.jclinane.2024.111559] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2024] [Revised: 07/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasal cannulas and face masks are common oxygenation tools used in conventional oxygen therapy for patients undergoing endoscopic surgery with sedation. However, as a novel supraglottic ventilation technique, the application of supraglottic jet oxygenation and ventilation (SJOV) in endoscopic surgery has not been well established. METHOD We searched six electronic databases from inception to January 16, 2024, to assess the oxygenation/ventilation efficacy and side effects of the of SJOV in endoscopic surgery. The primary outcome was the incidence of hypoxemia. The secondary outcomes were the incidence of respiratory depression and adverse effects (nasal bleeding, sore throat, and dry mouth). RESULTS Nine trials involving 2017 patients were included. The results demonstrated that the incidence of hypoxemia was lower in the SJOV group compared with the conventional oxygen therapy (COT) group [9 trails; 2017 patients; risk ratio (RR) = 0.18; 95% confidence interval (CI), (0.11-0.28)]. Subgroup analyses showed that SJOV reduced the incidence of hypoxemia in the high-risk group but had no effect on the low-risk group. The incidence of respiratory depression is lower in SJOV than in COT, but has increased side effects such as dry mouth. There was no statistically significant difference in nose bleeding or sore throat between the two groups. CONCLUSION Compared with the COT, the SJOV decreased the incidence of hypoxemia in high-risk patients during endoscopic surgery with sedation. There was an increased risk of dry mouth, but not of nose bleeding or sore throat, during endoscopic surgery under sedation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Before tracheal intubation, it is essential to provide sufficient oxygen reserve for emergency patients with full stomachs. Recent studies have demonstrated that high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) effectively pre-oxygenates and prolongs apneic oxygenation during tracheal intubation. Despite its effectiveness, the use of HFNO remains controversial due to concerns regarding carbon dioxide clearance. The air leakage and unknown upper airway obstruction during HFNO therapy cause reduced oxygen flow above the vocal cords, possibly weaken the carbon dioxide clearance. METHODS Patients requiring emergency surgery who had fasted < 8 h and not drunk < 2 h were randomly assigned to the high-flow group, who received 100% oxygen at 30-60 L/min through nasopharyngeal airway (NPA), or the mask group, who received 100% oxygen at 8 L/min. PaO2 and PaCO2 were measured immediately before pre-oxygenation (T0), anesthesia induction (T1), tracheal intubation (T2), and mechanical ventilation (T3). The gastric antrum's cross-sectional area (CSA) was measured using ultrasound technology at T0, T1, and T3. Details of complications, including hypoxemia, reflux, nasopharyngeal bleeding, postoperative pulmonary infection, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and postoperative nasopharyngeal pain, were recorded. The primary outcomes were PaCO2 measured at T1, T2, and T3. The secondary outcomes included PaO2 at T1, T2, and T3, CSA at T1 and T3, and complications happened during this trial. RESULTS Pre-oxygenation was administered by high-flow oxygen through NPA (n = 58) or facemask (n = 57) to 115 patients. The mean (SD) PaCO2 was 32.3 (6.7) mmHg in the high-flow group and 34.6 (5.2) mmHg in the mask group (P = 0.045) at T1, 45.0 (5.5) mmHg and 49.4 (4.6) mmHg (P < 0.001) at T2, and 47.9 (5.1) mmHg and 52.9 (4.6) mmHg (P < 0.001) at T3, respectively. The median ([IQR] [range]) PaO2 in the high-flow and mask groups was 404.5 (329.1-458.1 [159.8-552.9]) mmHg and 358.9 (274.0-413.3 [129.0-539.1]) mmHg (P = 0.007) at T1, 343.0 (251.6-428.7 [73.9-522.1]) mmHg and 258.3 (162.5-347.5 [56.0-481.0]) mmHg (P < 0.001) at T2, and 333.5 (229.9-411.4 [60.5-492.4]) mmHg and 149.8 (87.0-246.6 [51.2-447.5]) mmHg (P < 0.001) at T3, respectively. The CSA in the high-flow and mask groups was 371.9 (287.4-557.9 [129.0-991.2]) mm2 and 386.8 (292.0-537.3 [88.3-1651.7]) mm2 at T1 (P = 0.920) and 452.6 (343.7-618.4 [161.6-988.1]) mm2 and 385.6 (306.3-562.0 [105.5-922.9]) mm2 at T3 (P = 0.173), respectively. The number (proportion) of complications in the high-flow and mask groups is shown below: hypoxemia: 1 (1.7%) vs. 9 (15.8%, P = 0.019); reflux: 0 (0%) vs. 0 (0%); nasopharyngeal bleeding: 1 (1.7%) vs. 0 (0%, P = 1.000); pulmonary infection: 4 (6.9%) vs. 3 (5.3%, P = 1.000); PONV: 4 (6.9%) vs. 4 (7.0%, P = 1.000), and nasopharyngeal pain: 0 (0%) vs. 0 (0%). CONCLUSIONS Compared to facemasks, pre-oxygenation with high-flow oxygen through NPA offers improved carbon dioxide clearance and enhanced oxygenation prior to tracheal intubation in patients undergoing emergency surgery, while the risk of gastric inflation had not been ruled out. TRIAL REGISTRATION This trial was registered prospectively at the Chinese Clinical Research Registry on 26/4/2022 (Registration number: ChiCTR2200059192).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoxygenation before anaesthesia induction is routinely performed via a tight-fitting facemask or humidified high-flow nasal oxygen. We hypothesised that effective preoxygenation, assessed by end-tidal oxygen (EtO 2 ) levels, can also be performed via a standard nasal cannula. OBJECTIVE This study compared the efficacy of preoxygenation between a traditional facemask, humidified high-flow nasal oxygen and a standard nasal cannula. DESIGN A volunteer, randomised, crossover study. SETTING Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm. The study was conducted between 2 May and 31 May 2023. PARTICIPANTS Twenty cardiopulmonary healthy volunteers aged 25-65 years with a BMI <30. INTERVENTIONS Preoxygenation using a traditional facemask, humidified high-flow nasal oxygen and standard nasal cannula. Volunteers were preoxygenated with all three methods, at various flow rates (10-50 l min -1 ), with open and closed mouths and during vital capacity manoeuvres. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The study's primary outcome compared the efficacy after 3 min of preoxygenation, assessed by EtO 2 levels, between the three methods and various flow rates of preoxygenation. RESULTS Three methods generated higher EtO 2 levels than others: (i) facemask preoxygenation using normal breathing, (ii) humidified high-flow nasal oxygen, closed-mouth breathing, at 50 l min -1 and (iii) standard nasal cannula, closed-mouth breathing, at 50 l min -1 , and expressed as means (SD): 90% (3), 90% (6) and 88% (5), respectively. Preoxygenation efficacy was greater via the bi-nasal cannulae using closed vs. open mouth breathing as well as with 3 min of normal breathing vs. eight vital capacity breaths. Preoxygenation with a facemask and humidified high-flow nasal oxygen was more comfortable than a standard nasal cannula. CONCLUSION The efficacy of preoxygenation using a standard nasal cannula at high flow rates is no different to clinically used methods today. The standard nasal cannula provides less comfort but is highly effective and could be an option when alternative methods are unavailable. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT05839665.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although preoxygenation is an essential procedure for safe endotracheal intubation, in some cases securing sufficient time for tracheal intubation may not be possible. Patients with head and neck cancer might have a difficult airway and need a longer time for endotracheal intubation. We hypothesized that the extended apneic period with preoxygenation via a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is beneficial to patients who undergo head and neck surgery compared with preoxygenation with a simple mask. METHODS The study was conducted as a single-center, single-blinded, prospective, randomized controlled trial. Patients were divided into groups based on one of the two preoxygenation. METHODS HFNC group or simple facemask (mask group). Preoxygenation was performed for 5 minutes with each method, and endotracheal intubation for all patients was performed using a video laryngoscope. Oxygen partial pressures of the arterial blood were compared at the predefined time points. RESULTS For the primary outcome, the mean arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2 ) immediately after intubation was 454.2 mm Hg (95% confidence interval [CI], 416.9-491.5 mm Hg) in the HFNC group and 370.7 mm Hg (95% CI, 333.7-407.4 mm Hg) in the mask group (P=0.002). The peak PaO2 at 5 minutes after preoxygenation was not statistically different between the groups (P=0.355). CONCLUSIONS Preoxygenation with a HFNC extending to the apneic period before endotracheal intubation may be beneficial in patients with head and neck cancer.

Abstract
High-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) is a respiratory support system, through which high flows of humidified and heated gas are delivered to hypoxemic patients. Several mechanisms explain how HFOT improves arterial blood gases and enhances patients' comfort. Some mechanisms are well understood, but others are still unclear and under investigation. HFOT is an interesting oxygen-delivery modality in perioperative medicine that has many clinical applications in the intensive care unit (ICU) and the operating room (OR). The purpose of this article was to review the literature for a comprehensive understanding of HFOT in the perioperative period, as well as its uses in procedural sedation. This review will focus on the HFOT definition, its physiological benefits, and their mechanisms, its clinical uses in anesthesia, and when it is contraindicated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parturients undergoing caesarean section in general anaesthesia have an increased risk of desaturating during anaesthesia induction. Pre- and peri-oxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygen prolong the safe apnoea time but data on parturients undergoing caesarean section under general anaesthesia are limited. This pilot study aimed to investigate the clinical effects and frequency of desaturation in parturients undergoing caesarean section in general anaesthesia pre- and peri-oxygenated with high-flow nasal oxygen and compare this to traditional pre-oxygenation using a facemask. METHODS In this prospective, non-randomised, multi-centre study we included pregnant women with a gestational age ≥30 weeks undergoing caesarean section under general anaesthesia. All parturients were asked to participate in the intervention group consisting of pre-oxygenation using high-flow nasal oxygen. Parturients declining participation were pre-oxygenated with a traditional facemask. Primary outcome was the proportion of parturients desaturating below 93% from start of pre-oxygenation until 1 min after tracheal intubation. Secondary outcomes investigated end-tidal oxygen concentrations after tracheal intubation and the proportion of parturients with signs of regurgitation. RESULTS A total of 34 parturients were included, 25 pre- and peri-oxygenated with high-flow nasal oxygen and 9 pre-oxygenated with facemask. No difference in patient or airway characteristics could be seen except for a higher BMI in the high-flow nasal oxygen group (31.4 kg m-2 [4.7] vs. 27.7 kg m-2 [3.1]; p = .034). No woman in any of the two groups desaturated below 93%. The lowest peripheral oxygen saturation observed, in any parturient, was 97%. There was no difference detected in end-tidal oxygen concentration after tracheal intubation, 87% (6) in the high-flow nasal oxygen group vs 80% (15) in the facemask group (p = .308). No signs of regurgitation, in any parturient, were seen. CONCLUSION Pre- and peri-oxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygen maintain adequate oxygen saturation levels during induction of anaesthesia also in parturients. Regurgitation of gastric content did not occur in any parturient and no other safety concerns were observed in this pilot study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-flow nasal oxygenation and the oxygen reserve index (ORI), which is a non-invasive and innovative modality that reflects the arterial oxygen content, are used in general anaesthesia. This study compares the preoxygenation efficiency (measured by the ORI) of high-flow nasal oxygenation and facemask ventilation during the induction process. METHODS This single-centre, two-group, randomised controlled trial included 197 patients aged ≥ 20 years who underwent orotracheal intubation for general anaesthesia for elective surgery. The patients were randomly allocated to receive preoxygenation via facemask ventilation or high-flow nasal oxygenation. The ORI was measured and compared between both groups. RESULTS The ORI increased during preoxygenation in all patients. At 1 min of preoxygenation, the ORI was significantly higher in the high-flow nasal oxygenation group (0.34 ± 0.33) than in the facemask ventilation group (0.21 ± 0.28; P = 0.003). The highest ORI was not significantly different between the two groups (0.68 ± 0.25 in the high-flow nasal oxygenation group vs. 0.70 ± 0.28 in the facemask ventilation group; P = 0.505). CONCLUSIONS High-flow nasal oxygenation results in an oxygenation status similar to that provided by facemask ventilation during the induction process of general anaesthesia; therefore, high-flow nasal oxygenation is a feasible preoxygenation method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Supplemental oxygen is routinely administered to patients prior to and during induction of general anesthesia and sedation. This increases the fraction of oxygen in the lungs, increases oxygen delivery, and increases the time to oxygen desaturation. Proprietary Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE) systems, which deliver warmed and humidified oxygen, have been extensively researched in the perioperative and critical care setting and have been shown to significantly prolong time to desaturation and as a means of ventilatory support. The use of traditional nasal oxygen cannula used at maximum flow rates is currently used in short bursts as it is poorly tolerated. There is however a dearth of data examining the use of this technique. We hypothesized that traditional nasal oxygen cannulae used at maximum flow rates can deliver oxygen as effectively as THRIVE in this setting. METHODS We designed a crossover volunteer feasibility study. The participants were 10 healthy anesthetists. We compared the two methods of oxygen delivery by measuring transcutaneous oxygen measurement and pharyngeal oxygen concentration. Comfort and noise levels were recorded. The aforementioned parameters were compared between the two groups. RESULTS We observed that a standard oxygen cannula used at high flows delivers comparable oxygen delivery and tissue oxygenation performance to proprietary THRIVE systems. However, they are less comfortable and make more noise. DISCUSSION To the authors' knowledge this study is the first to study the oxygen delivery of traditional nasal oxygen cannula used at maximum flow rates and make comparisons to the well-studied THRIVE technique. While similar transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen and pharyngeal gas concentrations were observed with both techniques, the standard cannulae were deemed to be a lot less comfortable than THRIVE and made a lot more noise which likely limit the utility of this technique outside of short bursts. CONCLUSION In this study, a standard nasal oxygen cannula used at high flows achieved similar oxygen delivery to THRIVE at the expense of poor comfort and increased noise.

Abstract
The Difficult Airway Society recommends that all patients should be pre-oxygenated before the induction of general anaesthesia, but this may not always be easy or comfortable and anaesthesia may often be induced without full pre-oxygenation. We tested the hypothesis that high-flow nasal oxygen cannulae would be easier and more comfortable than facemasks for pre-oxygenation. We randomly allocated 199 patients undergoing elective surgery aged ≥ 10 years to pre-oxygenation using either high-flow nasal oxygen or facemask. Ease and comfort were assessed by anaesthetists and patients on 10-cm visual analogue scale and six-point smiley face scale, respectively. Secondary endpoints included end-tidal oxygen fraction after securing a definitive airway and time to secure an airway. A mean difference (95%CI) between groups in ratings of -0.76 (-1.25 to -0.27) cm for ease of use (p = 0.003) and -0.45 (-0.75 to -0.13) points for comfort (p = 0.006), both favoured high-flow nasal oxygen. A mean difference (95%CI) between groups in end-tidal oxygen fraction of 3.89% (2.41-5.37%) after securing a definitive airway also favoured high-flow nasal oxygen (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference between groups in the number of patients with hypoxaemia (Sp O2 < 90%) or severe hypoxaemia (Sp O2 < 85%) lasting ≥ 1 min or ≥ 2 min; in the proportion of patients with an end-tidal oxygen fraction < 87% in the first 5 min after tracheal intubation (52.2% vs. 58.9% in facemask and high-flow nasal oxygen groups, respectively; p = 0.31); or in time taken to secure an airway (11.6 vs. 12.2 min in facemask and high-flow nasal oxygen groups, respectively; p = 0.65). In conclusion, we found pre-oxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygen to be easier for anaesthetists and more comfortable for patients than pre-oxygenation with a facemask, with no clinically relevant differences in end-tidal oxygen fraction after securing a definitive airway or time to secure an airway. The differences in ease and comfort were modest.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite evidence that high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) promotes oxygenation, its application in sedated gastroscopy in elderly patients has received little attention. This study investigated the effect of different inhaled oxygen concentrations (FiO2) of HFNC during sedated gastroscopy in elderly patients. METHODS In a prospective randomized single-blinded study, 369 outpatients undergoing regular gastroscopy with propofol sedation delivered by an anesthesiologist were randomly divided into three groups (n = 123): nasal cannula oxygen group (Group C), 100% FiO2 of HFNC group (Group H100), and 50% FiO2 of HFNC (Group H50). The primary endpoint in this study was the incidence of hypoxia events with pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) ≤ 92%. The secondary endpoints included the incidence of other varying degrees of hypoxia and adverse events associated with ventilation and hypoxia. RESULTS The incidence of hypoxia, paradoxical response, choking, jaw lift, and mask ventilation was lower in both Group H100 and Group H50 than in Group C (P < 0.05). Compared with Group H100, Group H50 showed no significant differences in the incidence of hypoxia, jaw lift and mask ventilation, paradoxical response, or choking (P > 0.05). No patients were mechanically ventilated with endotracheal intubation or found to have complications from HFNC. CONCLUSION HFNC prevented hypoxia during gastroscopy with propofol in elderly patients, and there was no significant difference in the incidence of hypoxia when FiO2 was 50% or 100%. TRIAL REGISTRATION This single-blind, prospective, randomized controlled trial was approved by the Ethics Committee of Nanjing First Hospital (KY20201102-04) and registered in the China Clinical Trial Center (20/10/2021, ChiCTR2100052144) before patients enrollment. All patients signed an informed consent form.

Peri-intubation oxygenation for Caesarean delivery: is there an optimal technique? Br J Anaesth 2022; 129:468-471.

Abstract
Peri-intubation oxygen administration to the pregnant patient during induction of general anaesthesia is critical to avoiding hypoxaemia and harm to the mother and fetus. Recent modelling comparing low-flow with high-flow nasal oxygen in simulated term pregnant women of varying body habitus, taken together with previous work, suggests that face mask preoxygenation with the use of low-flow or high-flow nasal oxygen during the period of apnoea prolongs the safe apnoea period, with the benefit varying by body habitus. Low-flow compared with high-flow nasal oxygen may be easier to combine with face mask preoxygenation and is readily available in all operating theatres, although future improvements in high-flow nasal oxygen delivery systems may improve ease of use for this indication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety of preoxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygenation in elderly patients during induction of general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. METHODS Fifty-six elderly patients without difficult airway were randomized equally into high-flow nasal oxygen group (HF group) and conventional mask oxygen group (M group). Preoxygenation was performed for 5 min before induction of general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation. Oxygenation was maintained during laryngoscopy in HF group, and ventilation lasted until laryngoscopy in M group. For all the patients, the general data, cross-sectional area (CSA) of the gastric antrum measured by ultrasonography, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and arterial oxygen saturation (cSO2) were recorded before preoxygenation (T1), at 5 min of preoxygenation (T2) and immediately after intubation (T3). The safety time of asphyxia, intubation time, times of mask ventilation and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The general data were comparable between the two groups. After 5 min of preoxygenation, PaO2 and cSO2 were significantly increased in both groups, and PaO2 was significantly higher in HF group than in M group (F=118.108 vs 9.511, P < 0.05). Both PaO2 and cSO2 decreased after intubation, but PaO2 decreased more slowly in HF group and still remained higher than that at T1; cSO2 decreased significantly in M group to a lower level than that at T1. Compared with those in M group, the patients in HF group showed a significantly longer safety time of asphyxia (t=5.305, P < 0.05) with fewer times of mask ventilation (χ2= 6.720, P < 0.05). PaCO2 increased after intubation in both groups but was comparable between the two groups (F=3.138, P > 0.05). CONCLUSION High-flow nasal oxygen is safe, simple and effective for pre-oxygenation, which, as compared with the conventional oxygen mask, improves arterial oxygen partial pressure and prolongs the safety time of asphyxia to ensure the safety of airway management during induction of general anesthesia in elderly patients with endotracheal intubation.

Abstract
Background Tracheal intubation in the emergency department (ED) can cause serious complications. Available evidence on the use of a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) during intubation in the ED is limited. This study evaluated the effect of oxygen therapy by HFNC on oxygen desaturation during tracheal intubation in the ED. Methods This was a single-center before-and-after study designed to compare two groups that received oxygen therapy during intubation: one received conventional oxygen, and the other received oxygen therapy using HFNC. We included non-trauma patients who required tracheal intubation in the ED. Linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between oxygen therapy using HFNC and the lowest peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) during intubation in the conventional and HFNC groups. Results The study population included 87 patients (conventional group, n = 67; HFNC group, n = 20). The median lowest SpO2 in the HFNC group was significantly higher than that in the conventional group (94% [84–99%] vs. 85% [76–91%], p = 0.006). The percentage of cases with oxygen desaturation to < 90% during the intubation procedure in the HFNC group was significantly lower than that in the conventional group (40% vs. 63.8%, p = 0.037). The use of HFNC was significantly associated with the lowest SpO2, and the use of HFNC increased the lowest SpO2 during intubation procedures by 3.658% (p = 0.048). Conclusion We found that the use of HFNC during tracheal intubation was potentially associated with a higher lowest SpO2 during the procedure in comparison to conventional oxygen administration in non-trauma patients in the ED.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current practice guidelines recommend the use of nasal cannula as an alternative pre-oxygenation method for tracheal intubation. However, the efficacy of high-flow nasal oxygenation versus standard facemask oxygenation has not been fully evaluated. METHODS We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov for English-language studies published from January 1, 2000 to November 30, 2021. We included randomized controlled trials which compared high-flow nasal oxygenation and facemask oxygenation as the pre-oxygenation maneuver. Primary outcome was arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) after pre-oxygenation. Secondary outcomes were safe apnea time, arterial desaturation during intubation, lowest peripheral capillary oxygen saturation during intubation, and patient comfort score. Random-effects models and Mantel-Haenszel method were used for data synthesis. RESULTS A total of 16 randomized controlled trials and 1148 patients were included. High-flow nasal oxygenation achieved a higher PaO2 compared with facemask, mean difference: 64.86 mm Hg (95% confidence interval [CI]: 32.33-97.40, P < .0001). Safe apnea time was longer in high-flow nasal oxygenation, mean difference: 131.03 seconds (95% CI: 59.39-202.66, P < .0001). There was no difference in the risk of peri-intubation desaturation or lowest peripheral capillary oxygen saturation between groups. Patient comfort score was higher in high-flow nasal oxygenation, mean difference: 1.00 (95% CI: 0.46-1.54, P = .0003). CONCLUSION High-flow nasal oxygenation better enhanced PaO2 and extended safe apnea time and is not inferior to facemask oxygenation in preventing desaturation during tracheal intubation. High-flow nasal oxygenation may be considered as an alternative method, especially for patients with a potential difficult airway.

Abstract
High-flow nasal oxygenation (HFNO) is a type of oxygen therapy that provides humidified and heated oxygen through a nasal cannula at much higher flow rates than standard oxygen therapy, while also allowing control over the fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2). Compared to standard oxygen therapy, it is much more comfortable for the patient and seems to alleviate most of the problems associated with standard oxygen therapy, such as dry nose, dry throat and nasal pain. It also provides a variety of benefits that can reduce the incidence of escalating treatment and initiating mechanical ventilation in COVID patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). This article provides an overview of HFNO and its current applications in COVID patients during the pandemic.

Abstract
Nasotracheal intubation is used as a basic method for airway management, along with orotracheal intubation under anesthesia and intensive care. It has become an effective alternative method to orotracheal intubation with increased benefits of offering better mobility and surgical field in oral and maxillofacial surgery and possibly in trauma and critically ill patients. Nasotracheal intubation is performed through a relatively narrow nasal cavity; therefore, additional precautions are needed. Accordingly, nasotracheal intubation methods have evolved over the years with accumulated clinical experience and improved instruments to facilitate safe intubation with reduced complications. Therefore, in this review article, we summarize the basic anatomy of the nasal airways to clarify the precautions, delineate the history and development of various methods and instruments, and describe the indications, contraindications, complications, and preventive methods of nasotracheal intubation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) is an emerging technology that has generated interest in tubeless anesthesia for airway surgery. HFNO has been shown to maintain oxygenation and CO2 clearance in spontaneously breathing patients and is an effective approach to apneic oxygenation. Although it has been suggested that HFNO can enhance CO2 clearance during apnea, this has not been established. The true extent of CO2 accumulation and resulting acidosis using HFNO during prolonged tubeless anesthesia remains undefined. METHODS In a single-center trial, we randomly assigned 20 adults undergoing microlaryngoscopy to apnea or spontaneous ventilation (SV) using HFNO during 30 minutes of tubeless anesthesia. Serial arterial blood gas analysis was performed during preoxygenation and general anesthesia. The primary outcome was the partial pressure of CO2 (Paco2) after 30 minutes of general anesthesia, with each group compared using a Student t test. RESULTS Nineteen patients completed the study protocol (9 in the SV group and 10 in the apnea group). The mean (standard deviation [SD]) Paco2 was 89.0 mm Hg (16.5 mm Hg) in the apnea group and 55.2 mm Hg (7.2 mm Hg) in the SV group (difference in means, 33.8; 95% confidence interval [CI], 20.6-47.0) after 30 minutes of general anesthesia (P < .001). The average rate of Paco2 rise during 30 minutes of general anesthesia was 1.8 mm Hg/min (SD = 0.5 mm Hg/min) in the apnea group and 0.8 mm Hg/min (SD = 0.3 mm Hg/min) in the SV group. The mean (SD) pH was 7.11 (0.04) in the apnea group and 7.29 (0.06) in the SV group (P < .001) at 30 minutes. Five (55%) of the apneic patients had a pH <7.10, of which the lowest measurement was 7.057. No significant difference in partial pressure of arterial O2 (Pao2) was observed after 30 minutes of general anesthesia. CONCLUSIONS CO2 accumulation during apnea was more than double that of SV after 30 minutes of tubeless anesthesia using HFNO. The use of robust measurement confirms that apnea with HFNO is limited by CO2 accumulation and the concomitant severe respiratory acidosis, in contrast to SV. This extends previous knowledge and has implications for the safe application of HFNO during prolonged procedures.

Abstract
The COVID-19 disease, caused by Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, often results in severe hypoxemia requiring airway management. Because SARS CoV-2 virus is spread via respiratory droplets, bag-mask ventilation, intubation, and extubation may place health care workers (HCW) at risk. While existing recommendations address airway management in patients with COVID-19, no guidance exists specifically for difficult airway management. Some strategies normally recommended for difficult airway management may not be ideal in the setting of COVID-19 infection. To address this issue the Society for Airway Management (SAM) created a task force to review existing literature and current Practice Guidelines for management of the difficult airway by the American Society of Anesthesiologists Task Force on Management of the Difficult Airway. SAM task force created recommendations for management of known or suspected difficult airway in the setting of known or suspected COVID-19 infection. The goal of the task force was to optimize successful airway management while minimizing exposure risk. Each member conducted a literature review on specific clinical practice section utilizing standard search engines (PubMed, Ovid, Google Scholar). Existing recommendations and evidence for difficult airway management in COVID-19 context were developed. Each specific recommendation was discussed among task force members and modified until unanimously approved by all task force members. Elements of AGREE Reporting Checklist for dissemination of clinical practice guidelines were utilized to develop this statement. Airway management in the COVID-19 patient increases HCW exposure risk. and difficult airway management often takes longer, may involve multiple procedures with aerosolization potential, strict adherence to personal protective equipment (PPE) protocols is mandatory to reduce risk to providers. When patient's airway risk assessment suggests awake tracheal intubation is an appropriate choice of technique, procedures that may cause increased aerosolization of secretions should be avoided. Optimal preoxygenation before induction with tight seal facemask may be performed to reduce risk of hypoxemia. Unless the patient is experiencing oxygen desaturation, positive pressure bag-mask ventilation after induction may be avoided to reduce aerosolization. For optimal intubating conditions, patients should be anesthetized with full muscle relaxation. Videolaryngoscopy is recommended as first-line strategy for airway management. If emergent invasive airway access is indicated, we recommend a surgical technique such as scalpel-bougie-tube, rather than an aerosolizing generating procedure, such as transtracheal jet ventilation. This statement represents recommendations by SAM task force for the difficult airway management of adults with COVID-19 with the goal to optimize successful airway management while minimizing the risk of clinician exposure.

Abstract
Pre-oxygenation using high-flow nasal oxygen can decrease the risk of desaturation during rapid sequence induction in patients undergoing emergency surgery. Previous studies were single-centre and often in limited settings. This randomised, international, multicentre trial compared high-flow nasal oxygen with standard facemask pre-oxygenation for rapid sequence induction in emergency surgery at all hours of the day and night. A total of 350 adult patients from six centres in Sweden and one in Switzerland undergoing emergency surgery where rapid sequence induction was required were included and randomly allocated to pre-oxygenation with 100% oxygen using high-flow nasal oxygen or a standard tight-fitting facemask. The primary outcome was the number of patients developing oxygen saturations <93% from the start of pre-oxygenation until 1 min after tracheal intubation. Data from 349 of 350 patients who entered the study were analysed (174 in the high-flow nasal oxygen group and 175 in the facemask group). No difference was detected in the number of patients desaturating <93%, five (2.9%) vs. six (3.4%) patients in the high-flow nasal oxygen and facemask group, respectively (p = 0.77). The risk of desaturation was not increased during on-call hours. No difference was seen in end-tidal carbon dioxide levels in the first breath after tracheal intubation or in the number of patients with signs of regurgitation between groups. These results confirm that high-flow nasal oxygen maintains adequate oxygen levels during pre-oxygenation for rapid sequence induction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-flow nasal oxygenation (HFNO) for pre-oxygenation in rapid sequence induction (RSI) has only been assessed in volunteer parturients without intubation. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy of HFNO in comparison with the conventional facemask for oxygenation during RSI for caesarean section under general anaesthesia. SETTING Operating room in a tertiary hospital. DESIGN Prospective randomised, controlled study. PARTICIPANTS Thirty-four healthy parturients undergoing general anaesthesia for caesarean section. INTERVENTIONS Parturients were randomly assigned to HFNO or standard facemask (SFM) group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome measure was the PaO2 immediately after intubation. Secondary outcomes included lowest saturation throughout the intubation procedure, end-tidal oxygen concentration (EtO2) on commencing ventilation, blood gas analysis (pH, PaCO2), fetal outcomes and intubation-related adverse events. RESULTS PaO2 in the HFNO group was significantly higher than that in SFM group (441.41 ± 46.73 mmHg versus 328.71 ± 72.80 mmHg, P < 0.0001). The EtO2 concentration in the HFNO group was higher than that in the SFM group (86.71 ± 4.12% versus 76.94 ± 7.74%, P < 0.0001). Compared to baseline, PaCO2 immediately after intubation also increased significantly in both groups (HFNO group: 30.87 ± 2.50 mmHg versus 38.28 ± 3.18 mmHg; SFM group: 29.82 ± 2.57 mmHg versus 38.05 ± 5.76 mmHg, P < 0.0001), but there was no difference in PaCO2 between the two groups. There was no difference in lowest saturation, intubation times, duration of apnoea, pH value or fetal outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Compared with SFM, HFNO provided a higher PaO2 and EtO2 immediately after intubation in parturients. HFNO is safe as a method of oxygenation during RSI in parturients undergoing general anaesthesia for caesarean section. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinical trial ChiCTR1900023121.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of high flow nasal oxygenation (HFNO) for pre-oxygenation before obstetric general anaesthesia remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the number of vital capacity breaths using HFNO required to pre-oxygenate 90% of parturients to an end-tidal oxygen concentration fraction (FETO2) of ≥0.90 (termed EN90). METHODS Using up-down, sequential allocation trial design, volunteer term parturients undergoing caesarean delivery were investigated with HFNO with their mouth closed, followed by mouth open, and if FETO2 ≥0.90 was not achieved after a maximum of 20 vital capacity breaths, pre-oxygenation was attempted with a face mask. The primary outcome was the number of vital capacity breaths required using HFNO (mouth open and closed) to achieve EN90. Secondary outcomes included assessment of EN90 using mouth open versus mouth closed and face mask pre-oxygenation, maternal satisfaction and evaluation of fetal cardiotocography. RESULTS Twenty women at term were recruited. Successful pre-oxygenation occurred in 4 (20%), 3 (15%) and 14 (70%) women with HFNO mouth closed, HFNO mouth open, and via face mask respectively. At up to 20 vital capacity breaths, face mask pre-oxygenation was more successful at achieving EN90 compared with both HFNO with a closed (P=0.006) or open (P=0.001) mouth. Closed mouth HFNO did not outperform open mouth pre-oxygenation. CONCLUSION Face mask pre-oxygenation is more effective at achieving EN90 compared with to HFNO within a clinically acceptable number of vital capacity breaths. Further studies are needed to determine the role of HFNO in optimising the time before desaturation and for apnoeic oxygenation in term parturients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) at defined time points during preoxygenation and to compare high-flow heated humidified nasal oxygenation with standard preoxygenation using oxygen insufflation via a facemask for at least 5 minutes, before intubation during induction of general anesthesia. METHODS This randomized, single-blinded, prospective study will be conducted in patients undergoing head and neck surgery. After standard monitoring, the artery catheter at the radial artery or dorsalis pedis artery will be placed and arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) for baseline values will be performed simultaneously. Each group will be subjected to 1 of 2 preoxygenation methods (high-flow nasal cannula or simple facemask) for 5 minutes, and ABGA will be performed twice. After confirming intubation, we will start mechanical ventilation and check the vital signs and perform the final ABGA. DISCUSSION This trial aims to examine the trajectory of PaO2 levels during the whole preoxygenation procedure and after intubation. We hypothesize that preoxygenation with the high-flow nasal cannula will be superior to that with the face mask. STUDY REGISTRATION This trial was registered with the Clinical Trial Registry (NCT03896906; ClinicalTrials.gov).

Abstract
Supraglottic jet oxygenation and ventilation (SJOV) is a novel minimally invasive supraglottic technique of jet ventilation which has shown superior results in maintaining oxygenation without any major complications. Theoretically, it could maintain PaO2 and PaCO2 within physiological limits for as long as required, the maximum duration reported till now is 45 min. The distinct advantage of SJOV over techniques of nasal oxygenation is its ability to record EtCO2 during the periods of ventilation. In addition, it also provides reliable airway access by the blind passage of the endotracheal tube into the trachea with a high success rate even in Cormack-Lehane-III (CLIII) grading patients. Potential complications seen with SJOV include nasal bleed and sore throat. No studies have shown to cause severe barotrauma. In this article, we review the evidence regarding oxygenation, ventilation, indications, airway patency and complications of SJOV in comparison to other more commonly used supraglottic oxygenation and ventilation devices.

Abstract
Three patients underwent laryngeal and tracheal surgeries under apneic conditions using transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange. Transcutaneous carbon dioxide (CO2) levels were recorded throughout the apneic period to detect rates of CO2 rise. Conventional airway management was initiated after 15 minutes of apnea with either tracheal intubation or jet ventilation. No patient experienced oxygen desaturation <97%. The average rate of transcutaneous CO2 rise (1.7 mm Hg/min) was higher than previously reported using this technique. This suggests a need for further investigation into the utility of transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange for airway surgery and adequate ventilation during apnea.

Abstract
High-flow nasal oxygenation (HFNO) is a promising new technique for anesthesiologists. The use of HFNO during the induction of anesthesia and during upper airway surgeries has been initiated, and its applications have been rapidly growing ever since. The advantages of this technique include its easy set-up, high tolerability, and its abilities to produce positive airway pressure and a high fraction of inspired oxygen and to influence the clearance of carbon dioxide to some extent. HFNO, via a nasal cannula, can provide oxygen both to patients who can breathe spontaneously and to those who are apneic; further, this technique does not interfere with bag-mask ventilation, attempts at laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation, and surgical procedures conducted in the airway. In this review, we describe the techniques associated with HFNO and the advantages and disadvantages of HFNO based on the current state of knowledge.

Abstract
Contemporary data are lacking for procedural practice, training provision and outcomes for awake fibreoptic intubation in the UK. We performed a prospective cohort study of awake fibreoptic intubations at a tertiary centre to assess current practice. Data from 600 elective or emergency awake fibreoptic intubations were collected to include information on patient and operator demographics, technical performance and complications. This comprised 1.71% of patients presenting for surgery requiring a general anaesthetic, with the majority occurring in patients presenting for head and neck surgery. The most common indication was reduced mouth opening (26.8%), followed by previous airway surgery or head and neck radiotherapy (22.5% each). Only five awake fibreoptic intubations were performed with no sedation, but the most common sedative technique was combined target-controlled infusions of remifentanil and propofol. Oxygenation was achieved with high-flow, heated and humidified oxygen via nasal cannula in 49.0% of patients. Most operators had performed awake fibreoptic intubation more than 20 times previously, but trainees were the primary operator in 78.6% of awake fibreoptic intubations, of which 86.8% were directly supervised by a consultant. The failure rate was 1.0%, and 11.0% of awake fibreoptic intubations were complicated, most commonly by multiple attempts (4.2%), over-sedation (2.2%) or desaturation (1.5%). The only significant association with complications was the number of previous awake fibreoptic intubations performed, with fewer complications occurring in the hands of operators with more awake fibreoptic intubation experience. Our data demonstrate that awake fibreoptic intubation is a safe procedure with a high success rate. Institutional awake fibreoptic intubation training can both develop and maintain trainee competence in performing awake fibreoptic intubation, with a similar incidence of complications and success compared with consultants.

Abstract
Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) therapy in patients undergoing rapid sequence intubation (RSI) for emergency abdominal surgery. Methods HFNO of 60 L.min-1 at an inspiratory oxygen fraction of 1 was delivered 4 min before laryngoscopy and maintained until the patient was intubated, and correct intubation was verified by the appearance of the end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) waveform. Transcutaneous oxygenation (SpO2), heart rate and non-invasive mean arterial pressure were monitored at baseline (T0), after 4 min on HFNO (T1) and at the time of laryngoscopy (T2) and endotracheal intubation (ETI) (T3). An SpO2 of <3% from baseline was recorded at any sampled time. The value of EtCO2 at T3 was registered after two mechanical breaths. The apnoea time was defined as the time from the end of propofol injection to ETI. RSI was performed with propofol, fentanyl and rocuronium. Results Forty-five patients were enrolled. SpO2 levels showed a statistically significant increase at T1, T2 and T3 compared with those at T0 (p<0.05); median SpO2% (interquartile range) was 97% (range, 96%-99%) at T0, 99% (range, 99%-100%) at T1, 99% (range, 99%-100%) at T2 and 99% (range, 99%-100%) at T3. Minimal SpO2 was 96%; no patient showed an SpO2 of <3% from baseline; mean EtCO2 at the time of ETI was 36±4 mmHg. Maximum apnoea time was 12 min. Conclusion HFNO is an effective and safe technique for pre-oxygenation in patients undergoing rapid sequence induction of general anaesthesia for emergency surgery.
