Effect of reverse Trendelenburg position and positive pressure ventilation on safe non-hypoxic apnea period in obese, a randomized-control trial

PURPOSE: There is an elevated incidence of hypoxemia during the airway management of the morbidly obese. We aimed to assess whether optimizing body position and ventilation during pre-oxygenation allow a longer safe non-hypoxic apnea period (SNHAP). METHODS: Fifty morbidly obese patients were recrui...
