Pre-oxygenation: HFNC vs HFFM (hi FiO2 face mask) during intubation in hypoxaemic pts
Clinical Question
Does High-flow therapy by nasal cannula (HFNC) improve the efficiency of preoxygenation before intubation compared with a high fraction-inspired oxygen facial mask (HFFM)
Critical Appraisal
Key findings
HFNC > no more effective than face mask. Many method & stat concerns
