Fig. 1From: Anesthetic management in a patient with severe tracheal stenosis by monitoring oxygen reserve indexOxygen reserve index (ORi™) and peripheral oxygen saturation during surgery using flexible (a) and rigid (b) bronchoscopes. a ORi reduced immediately after starting surgery. It decreased to 0.21, when SpO2 began to decrease. There were few minutes between the onset of decrease of ORi and of SpO2. b ORi was maintained above 0.4, and SpO2 did not decrease during surgery with a rigid scopeBack to article page
