Determinants of Rescue Ventilation Requirement in Airway Surgery Under General Anesthesia With THRIVE

Condition(s) studied

Study summary

The anesthesia and surgical procedures from the time the patient enters the operating room to discharge from the recovery room are identical to those used in conventional airway surgeries performed under general anesthesia with Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE). The time point at which rescue ventilation is required due to a drop in oxygen saturation below 92% during anesthesia will be recorded, and the predictive factors for this event will be investigated.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Time to Rescue Ventilation Due to Hypoxemia During Airway Surgery With THRIVE Under General Anesthesia — From the start of apnea to the initiation of rescue ventilation during surgery (intraoperative period)
  The primary outcome is the time from the start of apnea to the initiation of rescue ventilation, defined as the point when oxygen saturation (SpO₂) falls to 92% or below during airway surgery under general anesthesia with Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE). This will be measured using continuously recorded intraoperative data. The aim is to identify clinical predictors (e.g., anatomical and physiological variables) associated with the need for rescue ventilation.
