Conditions

Pediatric patients requiring endotracheal intubation in PICU Respiratory failure Pediatric Respiratory failure Endotracheal intubation Apneic oxygenation Intensive care unit

Interventions

After sedation&#44
patient will be put on nasal cannula and given dry oxygen flow 2 L/kg/min (max 40 L/min). After which&#44
NMBA will be given and endotracheal intubation will be performed. Nasal cannula will be removed after successful intubation.,After sedation and neuromuscular blockade&#44
patient will be intubated as usual method.

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients age 31 days to 18 years who will be intubated in PICU with neuromuscular blocking agent (NMBA) use

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Uncorrected cyanotic congenital heart disease 2.Known difficult airway 3.Patients who urgently require intubation that the study process will cause harm due to the delay in intubation 4.Patients with unstable vital signs or hypotensive shock 5.Known or suspected pneumothorax or pneumomediastinum 6.Severe abdominal distention 7.Known or suspected basal skull fracture 8.Patients whom NMBA was not used 9.Tracheostomized patients 10.Patients who have endotracheal tube change (not new intubation)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
