Preoxygenation in parturients: a comparison of 4, 6 and 8 vital capacity breaths to 5 minutes of tidal volume breathing.
Singapore Medical Journal 1990 April
We compared the difference in denitrogenation (by intermittent measurement of arterial tension, PaO2) in 45 parturients at term when preoxygenated with 4, 6 or 8 rapid vital capacity breaths and 5 minutes of tidal volume breathing. Oxygen, at 8 litres min-1, was delivered through a facemask via a circle absorber with a 2 litre reservoir bag. Higher PaO2 was produced with 5 minutes of tidal volume breathing. This differed significantly from the PaO2 produced by 4, 6 or 8 rapid vital capacity breaths (p less than 0.01).
