About this trial

This randomized clinical trial investigates whether Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) monitoring enables earlier detection of impending hypoxemia compared with conventional pulse oximetry during apneic intermittent ventilation in adult patients undergoing endolaryngeal surgery under general anesthesia. By providing continuous, noninvasive assessment of oxygen reserve in the hyperoxic range, ORi may offer an earlier warning of oxygen depletion before peripheral oxygen saturation declines. The study compares time to reventilation thresholds, arterial blood gas parameters, and perioperative respiratory outcomes between ORi-guided and standard SpO₂-guided monitoring strategies.
