Short-Term Outcomes of Low Versus High Inspiratory Oxygen Fraction During Induction of General Anesthesia in Noncardiac Surgery: A Pragmatic Open-Label Randomized Non-Inferiority Trial
Abstract:AbstractBackground. High inspiratory oxygen fraction (FIO2) is associated with increased perioperative pulmonary morbidity and postoperative mortality. However, the use of pure oxygen is still currently recommended during the anesthesia induction.Methods, This open-label randomized non-inferiority trial was conducted in two metropolitan hospitals at Southern Taiwan. A total of 302 surgical patients (ASA… Show more
