Facial Mask Tightness: A Comparative Study (EMAF)

January 10, 2019 updated by: University Hospital, Limoges
A correct preoxygenation can be obtained after a 3min delay of calm ventilation through a tight mask thereafter mask is used to make the patient breathing before intubation. Most tight masks are actually sold but they have never been compared in studies. The aim of this study is to compare air leaks with standard facial mask and QuadraLite masks during preoxygenation and induction of anesthesia.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: standard face masks
The standard mask is used in usual care
Experimental: QuadraLite face masks
This study will compare tightness of 2 face masks during preoxygenation and after induction of anesthesia with propofol, sufentanil and rocuronium. During preoxygenation, a 10 l.min-1 fresh gas flow and 8 cm H2O PEEP will be applied. After induction of anesthesia, patients will receive pressure-controlled ventilation (fresh gaz flow 3 L.min-1, pressure set to obtain a 7 ml.kg-1 ideal body weight, 10 cpm, peep 5 cm H2O).
The intervention is identical in the two group

What is the study measuring?
