Trial Background and Design

The podcast episode featured a discussion on a multi-center randomized trial focusing on pre-oxygenation techniques during emergency tracheal intubation. Patients were randomized into receiving pre-oxygenation via non-invasive ventilation or face mask, with notable exclusions such as patients already on positive pressure ventilation. The trial design aimed to assess hypoxemia rates as the primary outcome, considering its association with adverse clinical outcomes during intubation procedures.
