Exploring Pulse OXimeter Accuracy Across SKin Tones — EXAKT  

Critical Illness Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Study Within a Trial to Determine the Effect of Skin Tone on the Diagnostic Accuracy of Pulse Oximeters

Clinical Trial Summary

This study within a trial (SWAT) will be a sub-study of the UK-ROX trial (ISRCTN13384956), which is currently running in intensive care units across the UK. UK-ROX is large-scale randomised controlled trial evaluating conservative oxygen therapy (a target SpO2 of 88-92%) versus usual oxygen therapy in mechanically ventilated adult patients admitted to ICUs in the UK. The purpose of this observational sub-study is to compare pulse oximeter-derived peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) values to co-oximeter-derived arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) measurements from arterial blood gas (ABG) samples, for a range of fingertip pulse oximeters in an ethnically diverse group of adult patients admitted to UK intensive care units (ICUs). Approximately 900 patients will be recruited over 12 month period from 24 sites to provide an anticipated 10,800 paired SpO2 and SaO2 measurements. Patient skin tone will be objectively measured using a handheld spectrophotometer. Data from the sub-study will be used to determine the accuracy of the tested pulse oximeters across a range of skin tones and arterial oxygenation levels.

Clinical Trial Description

Research question: What is the diagnostic accuracy of different pulse oximeters at peripheral oxygen saturation levels (SpO2) relevant to their use by patients at home and how does this vary in people with darker skin pigmentation? Primary objective: To compare pulse oximeter-derived SpO2 values to co-oximeter-derived arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) measurements from arterial blood gas (ABG) samples, for a range of fingertip pulse oximeters in an ethnically diverse group of adult patients with a broad spectrum of skin tones admitted to UK intensive care units (ICUs). Design: This study within a trial (SWAT) that will form an observational sub-study of the NIHR HTA funded UK-ROX trial (https://fundingawards.nihr.ac.uk/award/NIHR130508), which is currently running in ICUs across the UK. Twenty four ICUs enrolling patients into the UK-ROX trial trial will be randomly allocated two brands of pulse oximeter to evaluate. Over a period of 24 hours for each participant, SpO2 values from the test pulse oximeters will be compared to simultaneous SaO2 values from ABG samples analysed on a standard ICU ABG co-oximeter machine. Patient skin tone will be objectively measured using a handheld spectrophotometer. The difference between SpO2 and SaO2 will be compared across skin tones and across a range of arterial oxygenation levels. Setting: The UK-ROX trial is large-scale, multi-centre, data-enabled, registry embedded randomised controlled trial (RCT) evaluating conservative oxygen therapy (a target SpO2 of 88-92%) versus usual oxygen therapy in mechanically ventilated adult patients admitted to ICUs in the United Kingdom. Target population: 900 mechanically ventilated adults screened for enrolment into the UK-ROX trial. Primary outcome: The accuracy of SpO2 measurement in the evaluated pulse oximeters, validated against co-oximeter-derived SaO2 ABG sample analysis. ;
