Brief Summary:
Background: The Oxygen Reserve Index (ORI) is a non-invasive parameter utilizing multi-wavelength pulse co-oximetry. ORI can provide early warnings of deteriorating oxygenation before changes are reflected in SpO₂ levels. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of non-ventilated intubation in patients undergoing cholecystectomy as a means to achieve safe intubation without nasogastric tube placement, with reduced trauma and cost, and improved time efficiency.
Detailed Description:
Obesity is a complex and chronic disease that significantly impacts respiratory physiology. It leads to increased work of breathing and reduced compliance of the chest wall. In morbidly obese individuals, there is a marked reduction in total lung capacity, vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), and forced vital capacity (FVC). Additionally, due to their elevated metabolic demands, these patients exhibit higher oxygen consumption rates.
The Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) (Masimo Corp., Irvine, CA, USA) is an advanced, continuous, and non-invasive parameter that provides a relative indication of arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂).
ORI monitoring can be particularly beneficial in patients at risk for inadequate preoxygenation, those with difficult mask ventilation, hypoxemic patients with aspiration risk, rapid sequence induction scenarios, obese individuals, ICU intubations, and invasive ventilation cases. It has also been shown to provide early warnings of desaturation in select patient groups, contributing to improved patient safety.
