About this study

After informed consent, each volunteer will undergo the following techniques:

Simple mask at "flush" flow (40-60 L/min) Non-rebreather mask at 15 L/min Non-rebreather mask at 60 L/min Bag valve mask with one way exhalation valve at 15 L/min

After 3 minutes, the exhaled oxygen will be measured with an oxygen sensor

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Over 18 years old

Exclusion criteria

  • Any active respiratory pathology (asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, other lung disease, smoking history more than 5 years)
  • pregnant

Treatment and study plan

Preoxygenation

Device

After 3 minutes of oxygen supplementation (preoxygenation), with each of the devices listed below, the exhaled oxygen content will be measured. All participants were enrolled in a single arm in which they underwent 4 interventions in series: 1) Simple mask at 60 L/min for 3 minutes 2) Non-rebreather at 60 L/min for 3 min 3) Non-rebreather at 15 L/min for 3 minutes 4) Bag valve mask at 15 L/min for 3 minutes

Primary outcomes

  1. Exhaled Oxygen Concentration

    Time frame: Immediately after 3 minutes of oxygen supplementation

    Subjects will blow into an oxygen sensor after each method (arm). The primary outcome will be a non-inferiority test between bag valve mask and non-rebreather at 60 L/min. The remaining tests will be completed for comparison, but not part of formal statistical testing.
