The ORI at 1 min of preoxygenation

Violin plots show the distribution of the ORI at 1 min of preoxygenation for patients in the HFNO and facemask oxygenation groups. A boxplot comparing the ORI at 1 min of preoxygenation between the two groups, which was assessed using Student’s t-test (P < 0.01), is also shown. The horizontal bar represents the median, and the edges of the box represent the interquartile range, with the whiskers representing the lower quartile. Abbreviations: ORI, oxygen reserve index; HFNO, high-flow nasal oxygen; FMV, facemask ventilation
