Hi folks, finally on the podcast I interview Dr John Sakles, emergency physician in Arizona and excellent researcher in emergency airway management. He recently published 2 papers done from one study in his ER looking at introduction of nasal cannula oxygenation for emergency intubations, so called ApOx or apneic oxygenation during intubation attempts. I chat to him about his thoughts on his research into ApOx in emergency intubations and also discuss 2 other recent papers on preoxygenation and nasal oxygenation.
The show notes:
Efficacy of Nasal Cannula Oxygen as a Preoxygenation Adjunct in Emergency Airway Management.
Assessment of Common Preoxygenation Strategies Outside of the Operating Room Environment

In the fall of 2000, I was an intern in the UC ED, and my attending was John Sakles. In room B Circle 3, I saw a case of angioedema for the first time. I had no idea what was going on with the patient. I thought it was some sort of infection. John, thanks for being gentle with me that night when I gave you my differential diagnosis. And thanks for all your work in advancing emergency airway management!
He is a true gentleman and scholar !
You guys are too kind. Thank you both for your efforts in advancing the safety of emergency airway management.- JCS
