Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Assessment of time taken for saturation to fall to 94% or below, after administering muscle relaxant.Timepoint: Once saturation falls to 94% after administration of muscle relaxant or 10 minutes after giving muscle relaxant, whichever is earlier. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Analyse the arterial carbon dioxide rate of accumulation from baseline till the point when oxygen saturation reaches 94% or at 10 minutes after muscle relaxant administration if saturation remains above 94% throughout.Timepoint: Once saturation falls to 94% after administration of muscle relaxant or at 10 minutes after giving muscle relaxant, whichever is earlier.;Assessment of arterial oxygen partial pressures when arterial haemoglobin saturation reaches 94% or at 10 minutes after muscle relaxant administration if saturation remains above 94% throughout.Timepoint: Once saturation falls to 94% after administration of muscle relaxant or 10 minutes after giving muscle relaxant, whichever is earlier.;Compare PaO2 levels just after preoxygenation i.e. just before IV anaesthetic administration.Timepoint: 5 minutes after start of experiment. | — |
