 Editor’s note: Assessing respiratory effectiveness is a fundamental perianesthesia skill. Underlying disease renders the assessment more complex.

Rex Marley has been involved with JoPAN for years, on the peer review panel during the O’Brien/Carlson editorial years and later as author and guest editor for subsequent editors.
