Letting patients take control: does holding your own oxygen mask calm nerves before surgery?

NCT ID NCT06361693

Summary

This study observed whether it is effective and helpful for patients to hold their own oxygen mask before receiving general anesthesia for surgery. Researchers enrolled 110 healthy or mildly ill patients to see if this 'self-preoxygenation' successfully prepared their bodies with oxygen and if it affected their anxiety and comfort levels. The goal was to gather information on this common practice to understand its benefits.
