Abstract

Abstract : Clinical question: Should I use apneic oxygenation when intubating patients in the emergency department to increase peri-intubation oxygen saturation and first-pass success? Article chosen: Oliveira JE, Silva L, Cabrera D, Barrionuevo P, et al. Effectiveness of apneic oxygenation during intubation: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Ann Emerg Med 2017;70(4):483-94. Objective: The purpose of this study was to synthesize and appraise the apneic oxygenation literature for its effect on peri-intubation outcomes.
