The Efficacy of Transnasal Humidified Rapid-insufflation Ventilatory Exchange During Laryngeal Microsurgery

November 19, 2020 updated by: Youn Joung Cho, MD, Seoul National University Hospital

The Efficacy of Transnasal Humidified Rapid-insufflation Ventilatory Exchange in Patients Undergoing Laryngeal Microsurgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE) was revealed to prolong apneic time with a slow increase in carbon dioxide; thus, has been used for preoxygenation in patients with difficult airways or requiring rapid sequence induction in general anesthesia.

However, in patients undergoing hypopharyngeal and laryngo-tracheal surgery, THRIVE during operation can be advantageous by allowing tubeless surgical field with sufficient oxygenation.

Therefore, the investigators conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy of THRIVE on prolonged apneic time with enhanced surgical conditions in patients with laryngeal microsurgery.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients undergoing laryngeal microsurgery will be randomized into either intubation group or THRIVE group.

On arriving operating room, the patients will be preoxygenated by facemask or high flow nasal cannula with 100% oxygen for 3 minutes according to the allocated group. After inducing general anesthesia, patients in intubation group will be oxygenated by endotracheal tube, while patients in THRIVE group will be oxygenated by high flow nasal cannula with flow rate of 70L/min. During the surgery, the endotracheal tube can be removed and reintubated in intubation group patients to provide surgical field by a surgeon, respectively.

The monitored pulse oximetry, oxygen reserve index, and transcutaneous partial pressure of carbon dioxide will be recorded during surgery.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: intubation group
The enrolled patients will be oxygenated by endotracheal tube during operation.
After preoxygenation with FiO2 1.0 and flow rate of 8 L/min for 3 minutes, the enrolled patients will be intubated with endotracheal tube and maintained oxygenation during surgery.
EXPERIMENTAL: THRIVE group
The enrolled patients will be oxygenated by intubationless high flow nasal cannula during operation.
After preoxygenation with 100% oxygen through high flow nasal cannula for 3 minutes, the enrolled patients will be maintained intubationless oxygenation with flow rate of 70 L/min during surgery.
