About this trial

This study aims to investigate two oxygenation methods (high flow nasal oxygen and supraglottic, superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation) for tubeless laryngotracheal surgeries concerning their safety and efficiency.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Written informed consent

Patients aged ≥18 years

Patients requiring elective tubeless laryngotracheal surgery

Disqualifiers

Patients <18 years

High risk of aspiration which concludes the consideration of using a tube in order to prevent aspiration.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • supraglottic superimposed high frequency jet ventilation ventilation using the TwinStream EVO (Carl Reiner GmbH, Vienna, Austria)

    Device

    supraglottic superimposed high frequency jet ventilation ventilation using the TwinStream EVO (Carl Reiner GmbH, Vienna, Austria). Initially FiO2 at 1.0, reduced to 0.3 during laser interventions. Frequency and pressure set according to the local standards

  • High-flow nasal supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula with the Optiflow (Fisher & Paykel, Auckland, New Zealand)

    Device

    up to 70 L/min FiO2 1.0 high flow oxygen via nasal cannula with the Optiflow (Fisher \& Paykel, Auckland, New Zealand) initially. Reduced FiO2 to 0.3 during laser intervention.
