Popis: An endoscopic bite block is a device to ensure that the patient’s mouth remains wide open during endoscopic procedures. Wide opening of the mouth may facilitate the efficiency of one-handed mask ventilation. We evaluated the effect of an endoscopic bite block on mask ventilation among three ventilation techniques: one-handed ventilation, one-handed ventilation with an endoscopic bite block, and two-handed ventilation. Fifty-nine anesthetized and paralyzed patients were included. After induction of anesthesia, one-handed ventilation, one-handed ventilation with an endoscopic bite block and two-handed ventilation were performed in a cross-over, randomized order. The primary outcome was the expiratory tidal volume (mL/kg of predicted body weight). Secondary outcomes included minute ventilation (L/min) and the incidence of inadequate mask ventilation or dead space ventilation. The expiratory tidal volume of one-handed ventilation with an endoscopic bite block was significantly improved when compared with that of one-handed ventilation (8.2 [6.8–10.2] mL/kg vs. 7.1 [4.5–9.0] mL/kg, respectively, difference = 1.1 mL/kg; 95% CI 0.8–2.4; P
