Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The study will test the efficacy of the Pentax AWSTM video laryngoscope (VLS) equipped with a P Blade as the means to provide apneic oxygenation and prolong DAWD. The P Blade sports a suction conduit which can equally well provide a conduit for oxygen administration. The initial phase of the study will include non-obese healthy (ASAR 1-2) women patients requiring endotracheal anesthesia for gynecologic (open or laparoscopic) abdominal surgery. Subsequently a cohort of morbidly obese patients (BM I ≥ 40 kg/m2) also requiring gynecologic abdominal access will be recruited for investigation.
Participants of each group (obese, non-obese) will be randomized to apneic oxygenation with the the Pentax AWS Laryngoscope or no apneic oxygenation.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Non-Obese: Apneic Oxygenation: eight minute
Non-obese healthy female patients requiring endotracheal anesthesia for gynecologic (open or laparoscopic) abdominal surgery will have the Pentax AWSTM video laryngoscope with attached P blade placed and then receive 10 l/minute flow of oxygen through the P blade (apneic oxygenation) for eight minutes, or earlier if SpO2 falls to ≤ 95%. The trachea will then be intubated and the ventilation of the lungs will commence using 100% oxygen until SpO2 ≥ 98%.
Apneic oxygenation: Eight minute
A Pentax AWSTM video laryngoscope with attached P blade will be placed and then 10 l/minute flow of oxygen will be administered through the P blade (apneic oxygenation) for eight minutes, or less if SpO2 falls to ≤ 95%. The trachea will then be intubated and the ventilation of the lungs will commence using 100% oxygen until SpO2 ≥ 98%.
Non-Obese: Without Apneic Oxygenation
Non-obese healthy female patients requiring endotracheal anesthesia for gynecologic (open or laparoscopic) abdominal surgery will have the Pentax AWSTM video laryngoscope with attached P blade placed for eight minutes, or earlier if SpO2 falls to ≤ 95%.
