This study compares the actual standard of care of intubation in Swiss pediatric intensive care units vs the use of apneic oxygenation using either high flow or low flow oxygen to prevent hypoxemia and to prolong apnea time during intubation of critically ill children, with the final aim to improve airway management safety at PICUs. Primary study objective: To demonstrate that airway management supported by oxygen supplementation (either HFNC or low flow oxygen) can prevent significant desaturation (SpO2 \> 85%) among patients in pediatric intensive care units (PICU) and neonatal intensive care units (NICU).
