Filter by: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.
THRIVE (Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange) refers to the use of high-flow nasal cannula to augment the ability to oxygenate and ventilate a patient under general anesthesia. The use of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen supplementation during anesthesia for surgical procedures has been a recent development in the adult population, with limited data analyzing the pediatric population. This study will determine whether high flow nasal cannula oxygen supplementation during surgical or endoscopic procedures can prevent desaturation events in children under anesthesia and improve the outcomes of that surgery.
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.
This is a prospective crossover study to compare the within-subject effect of the two target ranges of arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), both within the clinically recommended range of 90- 95%. The specific objective of this study to evaluate the impact of targeting SpO2 within 93-95% compared to the 90-92% range on ventilatory stability in premature infants of 23-29 weeks gestational age (GA).
This study will determine if the replacement of the measured arterial blood oxygen saturation with expired (end-tidal) oxygen value is an acceptable method to calculate the accuracy of pulse oximeters.
It is standard practice in the United States and many parts of world to perform Gastrointestinal endoscopy with the patient under deep intravenous sedation. Obesity is accepted as a patient specific risk factor for hypoxic events during procedural sedation for GI endoscopic procedures. The obese population has a higher prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is characterized by repeated obstruction of the upper airway, and leads to apnea and desaturation. This prospective, randomized study was designed to compare the effectiveness of the high flow nasal cannula, standard nasal cannula and standard face mask in morbidly obese patients with a high risk of sleep apnea, (BMI greater than 40, STOPBANG greater or equal to 5) receiving deep intravenous sedation during colonoscopies. This study will assess which method leads to a lower incidence of intraoperative desaturation events compared to the current standard of care.

The use of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen supplementation during anesthesia for surgical procedures has been a recent development in the adult population, with limited data analyzing the pediatric population. This study will determine whether high flow nasal cannula oxygen supplementation during surgical or endoscopic procedures can safely prevent desaturation events in children under anesthesia.
