About this trial
The frequency of oxygen desaturation during emergency intubation is not uncommon. However, the significance and clinical sequalae of hypoxia during emergency intubation in critically ill, non-trauma patients is not known. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate neurologic function post-intubation of critically ill, non-trauma patients. Providing knowledge on whether the degree of hypoxia during emergency intubation is associated with worse neurologic outcomes, will guide clinical practice to ameliorate that level of hypoxia

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
Modified Rankin Scale (mRs)
A validated 6-point scale for measuring the degree of disability in the daily activities of people suffering neurological impairment. The scale runs from 0-6, in which "0" indicates perfect health without disability and "6" indicates the worst outcome which is death.
Time frame
Up to 30-days of intubationSecondary outcomes
