Summary

This study tested a new 'hook technique' for one-hand mask ventilation in 375 obese adults (BMI 30-40). The goal was to see if it works better than traditional methods for getting air into the lungs during procedures. Researchers measured chest rise, oxygen levels, and other breathing indicators to compare success rates and safety.
