Clinical feasibility of high-flow nasal oxygenation during dental procedures in pediatric patients under intravenous deep sedation: initial experience.
Article in BMC oral health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05762692 (Clinical Feasibility and Efficacy of High-flow Nasal Oxygenation During Intravenous Deep Sedation in Pediatric Dental Patients), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract
backgroundOptimal respiratory management under deep sedation remains a most concerning safety challenge for pediatric dental treatment due to its shared oral cavity. High-flow nasal oxygenation has been found to be advantageous in certain short-duration pediatric procedures and examinations. Our study aimed to further explore its clinical feasibility in preschool-aged pediatric dental treatment under deep intravenous sedation of prolonged and more complex procedures.
methodsThis study involved twenty pediatric patients scheduled for elective dental treatment with anticipated operation time of 60-120 min under deep sedation. Sedative/anesthetic agents, oxygenation management and perioperative monitoring were performed by qualified anesthesiologists. IV insertion was conducted after the child was calmed with intranasal dexmedetomidine or under general anesthesia with mask inhalation of sevoflurane. During dental treatment, oxygen administration was provided with the HFNO device with a 2.0 L/kg/min gas flow rate and an FiO
resultsAll included children successfully completed dental treatment under deep sedation. The average operation time was 74 min. None of the participants experienced any desaturation and no related complications were reported in our observation and 24 h follow-up.
conclusionsBased on our initial experience, HFNO could provide ideal oxygenation in preschool-aged pediatric dental treatment under deep sedation without clinically observed complications and adverse events. Whereas the provider qualification, strict training of HFNO device, proper use and close monitoring must be emphasized.
trial registrationThe study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (No. NCT05762692) and first posted on 10/03/2023.
