Pre-Oxygenation

critical language designed to elevate your airway practice

Intubation interrupts the flow of oxygen to the patient’s lungs. To intubate safely, you must fill the tank, wash out the nitrogen, and give yourself an extended safe apnea time. The skill of effective Pre-Oxygenation is a core competency of airway management.

The Critical Language Project is a part of the Protected Airway Collaborative
