“…The latest obstetric airway management guidelines by the Obstetric Anaesthetists' Association (OAA) and the Difficult Airway Society (DAS) discuss the importance of pre-oxygenation as it increases oxygen reserve in the lungs during apnoea [1]. The guideline recommends that an end-tidal oxygen fraction (FetO 2 ) of ≥ 90% is achieved before induction of anaesthesia, states that nasal oxygenation could be considered as part of a pre-oxygenation method, and suggests that the anaesthetist should consider attaching nasal cannulae with 5 l.min À1 oxygen flow before starting pre-oxygenation, to maintain bulk flow of oxygen during intubation attempts, or attach nasal oxygenation after pre-oxygenation during the apnoeic period.…”

“…White and MathiszigLee for their comments on the AAGBI Recommendations for Standards of Monitoring (SoM) during anaesthesia and recovery [1,2]. I agree with them that anaesthetic departments in the UK and Ireland should aim to move to electronic anaesthetic record systems (EARS) in the medium to long term.…”
“…Chuan et al address a challenging set of important questions about assessing procedural skills for regional anaesthesia [1]. The definition and assessment of clinical competence and procedural skill is extremely difficult.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
