Linked study record
This study is being conducted with the same participants as another study (ACTRN12619000613101). The studies have distinct hypotheses and endpoints and will be conducted in series, with this study to be conducted immediately prior to induction of anaesthesia whereas the other study will be conducted after the induction of anaesthesia.

Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients will receive four minutes of 50l/min of Nasal High Flow delivered from a prototype flow source, a humidifier, a water chamber, a breathing tube, and a non sealing nasal interface. The treatment will be administered in an operating room under the direction of an anaesthetist immediately prior to induction of anaesthesia

The case report form will record the duration of the intervention, the flows delivered and any variations to the protocol.
