The use of HFNC for preoxygenation, when compared to standard care with BVM oxygenation, did not improve the lowest SpO2 levels during intubation. Also, the use of HFNC during intubation did not provide benefits in reducing the incidence of severe hypoxemia. However, the 30-day survival rates were slightly better in the HFNC group compared to the BVM group.
