Abstract

Purpose: High-flow nasal oxygenation (HFNO) can provide a low level of continuous positive airway pressure and alveolar recruitment. We aimed to compare the efficacy of pre-oxygenation with HFNO and low-flow nasal oxygenation (LFNO) during drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE).

Methods: In the LFNO group, preoxygenation was performed for 10 min at 3 L·min. In the HFNO group, preoxygenation was performed for 10 min at 30 L·min at a fraction of inspired oxygen of 100% using the Optiflow device. From the start of sedative administration to the end of DISE, vital signs were monitored continuously. The primary outcome was the lowest oxygen saturation (SpO) during DISE.

Results: Of 24 patients enrolled, 12 were randomly assigned to the LFNO and 12 to the HFNO groups. The prevalence of hypoxia events was 75% in the LFNO group and 58% in the HFNO group. The difference in lowest oxygen saturation between the two groups was not significant between the two groups (P=0.665). The lowest SpO during all procedures was comparable between the two groups (86.8 ± 6.5% in the LFNO group and 87.2 ± 8.0% in the HFNO group; P=0.912).

Conclusions: The findings suggest that HFNO may not be superior to LFNO as a preoxygenation tool to prevent hypoxia during DISE.
