Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Consenting adult patients (18-70 years), of both genders, of American Society of Anaesthesiologists functional class I or II, planned for elective surgery under GA with muscle relaxant, endotracheal intubation and controlled ventilation, AND in whom there exists need for intra-arterial cannulation.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: ASA functional class III and more, emergency surgeries, pregnancies, and lung related issues like chronic obstructive airway diseases, restrictive diseases, bronchial asthma, anticipated difficult airway, oropharyngeal or facial abnormalities making mask ventilation difficult and increased risk of aspiration.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcomes that will be measured is the percentage of patients whose SpO2 drops below 95%. Timepoint: At the end of period of apnea when the second sample of blood gas is collected

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. a. To compare the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide levels, and pH among patients who were ventilated with bag and mask and those who were not ventilated during the apnea period.Timepoint: One year;b. To measure the safe apnea period among patients who were not ventilated during the apnea period.Timepoint: One year
