Trial Outcomes & Findings for Apneic Oxygenation During Airway Management in Pediatric Patients (NCT NCT02437864)

NCT ID: NCT02437864

Last Updated: 2018-09-17

Results Overview

Prior to anesthesia induction, patients are ventilated to achieve pulse oximetry (SpO2) values near 100%. This outcome represents the elapsed time before successful intubation or pulse oximetry declining to 95%, whichever came first.
