In current clinical care, most critically-ill adults undergoing emergency tracheal intubation receive preoxygenation through an oxygen mask. Administering supplemental oxygen to patients prior to the start of an intubation procedure increases the oxygen content in the patient's lungs and decreases the risk of hypoxemia, low levels of oxygen in the blood.

Imagine walking through a park and suddenly spotting a bear. Normally your heart starts beating faster and your blood vessels constrict. That's the sympathetic nervous system preparing your body for a "flight or fight" response. Then, once you reach safety, your parasympathetic nervous system helps calm you down. Eventually, your blood pressure and heart rate return to normal.
