Table 1. Patient and airway management process characteristics, grouped by paramedic-assigned prehospital diagnostic impression categoryTable Footnote*
Figure 2. Percentage of cases (with 95% confidence interval) in each prehospital diagnostic impression category with any desaturation (light grey) and severe desaturation (dark grey). Median (25th, 75th percentile) pre-intubation SpO2 maximum is indicated below each category. There was loss of SpO2 data in the 1 cardiac case; thus, results are only depicted for the remaining 4 categories.

Figure 3. Probability (with 95% confidence interval) of any desaturation (light grey) and severe desaturation (dark grey) associated with different ranges of maximum pre-intubation SpO2. Median (25th, 75th percentile) change in SpO2 from pre-intubation maximum to nadir during intubation is indicated below each SpO2 range.
