Learning objectives for this talk: Understand the importance of objective measurement of fraction of expired oxygen in determining proper pre-oxygenation during rapid sequence intubation and how denitrogenation of the FRC and maximal oxygenation of the blood will lead to longer duration of apnea without desaturation times   Understand the impact denitrogenation and patient positioning have on potential pulmonary shunting which may place the patient at risk of rapid desaturation   Understand the importance human factors play in challenging procedural situations such as rapid sequence intubation and how situational awareness can be lost during times of high stress To watch the lecture, and learn more about the speaker, please visit www.continulus.com/library/?collection=emergency+medicine&chapter=airway
