In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the performance and physiological effects of different preoxygenation devices in healthy adult and pediatric volunteers (children aged 5-12 years). The study aims to determine how these devices influence oxygen delivery, airway pressure, and cardiopulmonary physiology during preoxygenation. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What fraction of inspired oxygen (FiOโ‚‚) is delivered by non-rebreather masks (NRM) compared to bag-valve masks (BVM) with and without positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)? * How do these devices differ in terms of generated PEEP, inspiratory effort, and their effects on lung ventilation and cardiac function? Researchers will compare NRM, BVM without PEEP, and BVM with PEEP (each with or without supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula) to evaluate differences in oxygenation and physiological effects.
