Filter by:This study is a randomized-controlled trial study comparing the association between several degree of head elevation and conventional position during pre-oxygenation to desaturation time in patients undergo endotracheal intubation with general anesthesia
We are seeing how well a remote monitoring device that looks like a sticker placed on the chest, under the arm can monitor a child's vital signs including oxygen levels compared to the way that we usually get these measurements. The goal of this study is to see if the new sticker can be used for monitoring patients with cardiac shunt dependent heart conditions from home once they are discharged home. Participating children will be monitored for 6-72 hours with the new sticker in addition to his/her usual hospital monitors so the new sticker device can be compared to our hospital monitors.
Background: Propofol based sedated anesthesia was widely used in percutaneous radiofrequency ablation and hypoxia/desaturation is one of the most frequent adverse events during this procedure. No effective methods have been found to prevent hypoxia/desaturation so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the incidence of hypoxia/desaturation was different between the high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy group (which can provide heated and humidified oxygen up to 60L/minute.) and the nasal cannula group. Methods: In a randomized, prospective and double-blind study,100 patients undergo percutaneous radiofrequency ablation based on propofol sedation were assigned into two groups: the nasal cannula group (O2 [6 L/minute] was supplied via an HFNC) and the HFNC group (O2 [40 L/minute] was supplied via an HFNC). The primary outcome is the incidence of hypoxia/desaturation during surgery. Other adverse events were also recorded.
During the induction of general anesthesia, the anesthesiologist needs to provide the oxygen supply to meet the patient's needs continuously. In the clinical scenario, the pulse oximeter is used as a standard to monitor hemoglobin oxygen saturation (SpO2) but is limited to assess the oxygenation status beyond the measurement of 100%. The Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) is a dimensionless parameter between 0 and 1 that is related to real-time oxygenation reserve status. This study was designed to evaluate the duration of warning time for desaturation provided by different ORi alarm triggers during prolonged apnea in surgical patients. The primary endpoint was the duration of additional warning time provided by the ORi trigger. The secondary endpoint was the correlation of ORi and PaO2.
To compare prototype pulse oximeter saturation measurements, during normal to low saturation, to saturation measurements made by a multi-wavelength CO-oximeter, taken from arterial blood samples from healthy human subjects.
Background and Objective: Airway control is a condition that should be evaluated primarily in anesthesia practice in the pediatric age group. Failed intubation or prolonged intubation duration can cause atelectasis and hypoxia in children. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of Macintosh laryngoscopy and McGrath videolaryngoscopy on hemodynamic parameters in pediatric patients who were scheduled to undergo elective dental surgery and required intubation for the application of general anesthesia. Methods: Sixty-six patients were divided into two groups according to the procedure used during intubation, namely, direct laryngoscopy or video laryngoscopy. The Cormack-Lehane and Mallampati scores, intubation duration, heart rate at minutes 0, 1, 3 and 5 during intubation, mean arterial pressure, EtCO2and SpO2 values were recorded for all the patients.
SpO2 (oxygen saturation) and pulse rate accuracy of pulse oximetry equipment, OxySoft Sensor/N-600x and OxySoft Sensor/N-395, continuous measure of arterial oxygen saturation during hypoxic state throughout motion and non-motion conditions under one system configuration. The purpose of this Non-Randomized, Prospective,Observational study is to conduct a hypoxia study to directly compare a prototype OxySoft pulse oximeter system to arterial oxygen saturation.
The 2019-20 coronavirus disease, caused by COVID-19, is an ongoing pandemic.So far, no specific treatment has proven efficacy. Recent case series reported the use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) on 5 severe COVID-19 patients who developed respiratory insufficiency. HBOT mechanisms of tissue oxygenation and anti-inflammatory effect may explain these findings. The purpose of the current study is the evaluate the efficacy of HBOT in moderate-severe COVID-19 patients in a randomized controlled manner.
Cardio-respiratory events (CRE), defined as intermittent episodes of hypoxemia and/or bradycardia, are particularly common among preterm infants. It has been previously shown that CRE result in transient brain hypoxia and hypoperfusion and may represent a possible risk factor for neurodevelopmental impairment and retinopathy of prematurity. The high cardio-respiratory instability typically seen in preterm infants during the first 72 hours of life may influence CRE occurrence, with possible clinical implications. This study aims to characterize CRE features in this transitional period and to evaluate whether specific neonatal and clinical characteristics are associated with different CRE types. Newborn infants with gestational age (GA) <32 weeks or birth weight (BW) <1500 g are enrolled. Congenital malformations and mechanical ventilation are exclusion criteria. During the first 72 hours, heart rate (HR) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) are continuously monitored, and an echocardiogram is performed to assess the status of the ductus arteriosus. CRE are clustered into isolated desaturation (ID, SpO2<85%), isolated bradycardia (IB, HR<100 bpm or <70% baseline), combined desaturation and bradycardia (DB, occurrence of the two events within a 60-sec window). According to their duration and SpO2 and/or HR nadir values, CRE are also classified as mild (SpO2 80-84% and HR 80-100 bpm and duration <60 sec), moderate (SpO2 70-79% or HR 80-60 bpm or duration 61-120 sec) or severe (SpO2 <70% or HR <60 bpm or duration >120 sec). A generalized estimating equation (GEE) will be used to examine the impact of relevant variables on CRE type and severity.
Suspension laryngoscopy is realised during apnea. In effect, surgeons are in the mouth of the patient and we can't have access at the aiways. So investigators like to use a Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE) to increase time of apnea and decrease the impact of oxygen desaturation.
