Propofol (10mg/kg/hr) and remifentanil (0.15mcg/kg/min) infusions commenced until study conclusion.~Positive pressure ventilation commenced at Sp02 92%. Failure to intubate the patient during the first minute of apnoea results in withdrawal from the study.~Blood samples obtained from an arterial catheter immediately prior to commencing pre-oxygenation, after 90 and 180 seconds of pre-oxygenation, after one minute of apnoea, and every two minutes during the apnoeic period."
