Filter by:The study is a non-blinded trial with one single intervention in sick newborn infants. The Neosense umbilical catheter will be used instead of the routinely used umbilical catheter on infants where the treating physician has ordered use of an umbilical catheter. The catheter will be connected to the Neosense monitor/measuring unit. Blood samples for blood gas analysis are collected from the patients according to the clinical routine (every 4th to 6th hour). Oxygen tension data from the Neosense measuring system, from the time points when a blood gas sample was collected, will be recorded. This data will be compared to the oxygen tension value from the blood gas sample collected at the same time point. The blood gas samples will be analysed according to clinical and laboratory routine. The infants will remain in the study as long as the Neosense measuring system is used.
Our objective is to evaluate the influence of inhaled NO on the saturation and exercise capacity of patients with COPD and IPF. each participant will undergo two six minute walk tests, one with inhaled NO and the other with placebo.
To compare work of breathing and oxygen saturation before, during, and after kangaroo mother care in preterm very low birth weight (VLBW) infants stable on non-invasive respiratory support.
The main goal of this project is to investigate how low intensity cycling exercise (1.5W/kg, for 6 minutes) influences cerebral functions, such as: Cerebral blood flow, oxygenation, and other physiological variables in different normobaric and hypobaric hypoxic conditions.
This is an observational, cohort-based, single-site, prospective study conducted in accordance with ISO 14155-1:2003 and ISO 14155-1:2011. The primary objectives are to evaluate the accuracy of the device's measurements/readings in comparison to a gold standard or standard of care patient monitor.
Post-operative pulmonary complications (PPCs) have a major impact on patients and healthcare expenses. The goal of perioperative respiratory therapy is to improve airway clearance, increase lung volume, and mitigate atelectasis. Incentive spirometers (IS) are ubiquitously used to prevent atelectasis and PPCs—implementation of which requires substantial provider time and healthcare expenses. However, meta-analyses have demonstrated that the effectiveness of ISs is unclear due to poor patient compliance in past studies. The goal of this investigation is evaluate the effectiveness of IS on post-operative clinical outcomes. The aims of this investigation are to evaluate 1) if IS use compliance can be improved by adding a use-recording patient reminder alarm, and 2) the clinical outcomes of the more compliant IS users vs. the less-compliant IS users.
Controlled hypotension is a preferred method for reducing surgical bleeding during septoplasty operations however, the level of hypotension and bradycardia should not disrupt cerebral oxygenation. On this account, the investigators aim to investigate the effects of different volatile anesthetics combined with a short-acting opioid on cerebral oxygenation during controlled hypotension using near infrared spectroscopy.
Hypoxemia may contribute increased morbidity and mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. We aim to characterize the role of acute and chronic hypoxemia for vascular function. For this purpose we measure capillary oxygen concentration and vascular. Vascular function is assessed by flow-mediated dilation oft he brachial artery, forearm blood flow and laser doppler perfusion imaging. We hypothesize that hypoxemia leads to impaired vascular function.
Objective: Objective of this pilot feasibility study is to monitor crSO2 using NIRS INVOS 5100 (Somanetics, USA) in addition to SpO2 monitoring to guide supplemental oxygen delivery and respiratory support based on both measurements in preterm neonates during the first 15 minutes after birth. Patients: Preterm neonates <34+0 weeks of gestation born via caesarean section and/or who require respiratory support will be eligible for the study. Design: A prospective two-centre randomized controlled pilot feasibility study Methods: Study group: Pulse oximetry will be used to measure SpO2 and heart rate as routine non-invasive monitoring in the first minutes of resuscitation. In addition during the first 15 minutes NIRS measurements will be recorded. crSO2 measurements in addition SpO2 measurements will be used to guide supplemental oxygen support and respiratory support during the first 15 minutes after birth. Control group: Only SpO2 measurements will be used to guide supplemental oxygen support and respiratory support during the first 15 minutes after birth. Hypothesis: Supplemental oxygen support and respiratory support guided by crSO2 and SpO2 measurements will reduce the time in % minutes of crSO2 <10th or >90th centile in preterm neonates during the first 15 minutes after birth Outcome Parameter: Primary outcome parameter will be duration in % minute of crSO2 <10th or >90th centile.
