Opportunities to provide supplementary oxygen during the process of tracheal intubation. BMV = bag-mask ventilation; NMB = neuromuscular blockade; ETT = endotracheal tube

Figure 2
Adaptive pre-oxygenation approach for critically ill adults with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure requiring tracheal intubation. P/F = arterial partial pressure of oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen ratio; HFNO = high-flow nasal oxygen; COT = conventional oxygen therapy; NIV = non-invasive ventilation; PEEP = positive end-expiratory pressure; HOB = head of bed; BMV = bag-mask ventilation.
