Critical Care Time

26. The PREOXI Trial with Dr. Kevin Gibbs, MD

Jun 13, 2024

Dr. Kevin Gibbs discusses the PREOXI Trial comparing preoxygenation techniques, emphasizing its impact on reducing complications in emergency tracheal intubation. The importance of preoxygenating critically ill patients to prevent complications like hypoxemia is highlighted, along with the benefits of non-invasive ventilation in critical care settings. The podcast explores challenges in high-risk scenarios, potential practice changes in preoxygenation strategies, and the groundbreaking study's impact on critical care practice.

Quick takeaways

Non-invasive ventilation reduces hypoxemia risk by 50%, affirming its efficacy in pre-oxygenation.

ICU and emergency departments may benefit from using non-invasive pre-oxygenation, impacting practice positively.

High-flow nasal cannula's exclusion in the study highlights the need for further investigation into alternative pre-oxygenation methods.

Deep dives

Patients in ICU vs. OR Intubation

Critically ill patients have a 10 to 24 times higher rate of complications during intubation compared to patients in the operating room. The procedures, while similar, are not the same, and the risks differ significantly between these patient populations.

Extra Extra - Read All About It!! It is our pleasure to bring to you - hot off the presses - the results from the PREOXI Trial which looks at whether or not preoxygenation with non-invasive positive pressure ventilation results in better peri-intubation outcomes versus non-pressurized preoxygenation strategies. Joining us is the primary author on this paper, Dr. Kevin Gibbs, MD of Wake Forest University School of Medicine. Practice changing? Practice affirming? Does it even matter?! Check out our interview with Dr. Gibbs and see what you think! Leave us a comment and let us know if this is going to impact your practice in the ICU and beyond!
