Hypoxaemia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Assessment of the Efficacy of Tracheal Oxygen Administration During Bronchoscopy - a Phase II Trial.
The aim of the present study is to measure the time to correction of O2 saturation when in case of desaturation below 90%, O2 administration is switched from the nasal to the tracheal route at a similar flow rate.
The development of a flexible bronchoscope with a channel dedicated to O2 administration
might allow optimization of the oxygen supplementation during bronchoscopy, which reduces
the risk of per- and peri-procedural hypoxemia. The investigators will conduct a pilot study
corroborating the hypothesis that tracheal supplementation of oxygen during flexible
bronchoscopy is advantageous in comparison to nasal cannula supplementation.
The concept of our trial consists of a mono-centric observational study performed in the
endoscopy suite of the Respiratory Division, University Hospitals Leuven. All patients will
be given informed consent before inclusion.
The aim of the present study is to measure the time to correction of O2 saturation when in
case of desaturation below 90%, O2 administration is switched from the nasal to the tracheal
route at a similar flow rate.
