* Mann-Whitney U test, †Friedman test, SD: standard deviation, Min: minimum, Max: maximum, Group 1: 3 min at normal tidal volume, Group 2: 30 s with the 4 deep vital capacity technique, T1: after preoxygenation, T2: immediately after intubation, T3: at the 3rd min after intubation, T4: at the 7th min after intubation, *P-value:comparison between groups. †P-value: Compared within the group, a-b: There is no difference between times with the same letter in a group.
