Summary

This study looked at whether patients can effectively give themselves extra oxygen (preoxygenation) before surgery by holding the mask themselves, instead of having a doctor or nurse do it. The study included 110 adults scheduled for surgery under general anesthesia. Researchers measured oxygen levels and anxiety to see if this self-preoxygenation approach works well.
