Noninvasive Ventilation for Preoxygenation during Emergency Intubation.

The New England journal of medicine·June 20, 2024·PMID 38869091

Why it matters

Hypoxemia during emergency intubation is common and linked to cardiac arrest and death. This trial provides high-level evidence that a simple, noninvasive intervention can substantially reduce that risk, directly informing airway management protocols in emergency departments and ICUs.
