View clinical trials related to Hyperoxia.
Filter by:Oxygen therapy is the most common treatment modality for patients with hypoxemia, but target values for normoxemia are not clearly defined. Therefore, iatrogenic hyperoxemia is a very common situation. Even though there are many side effects reported related to hyperoxemia and hyperoxemia is shown to be related to worse outcome than expected; clinicians still observe hyperoxemia frequently. Oxygen reserve index (ORi™) (Masimo Corp., Irvine, USA) can guide clinicians in detection of hyperoxia. ORi is a parameter which can evaluate partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) rating from 0 to 1. There are growing evidences in ORi that it might be helpful to reduce hyperoxia in general anesthesia. Continuous ORi monitoring can be used for detecting and preventing hyperoxia. The ability to perform FiO2 titration with ORi may be an appropriate monitoring management to prevent the harmful effects of hyperoxia.In this study, in patients who underwent major abdominal surgery; It was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of ORi-guided FiO2 titration in preventing hyperoxia.
Chronic respiratory diseases are a global burden. Treatment options have improved in recent years, pulmonary rehabilitation plays a key role. Oxygen therapy is recommended in patients with a low saturation at rest, but no clear guidance is given for patients who desaturate during exercise. The effect of ambulatory oxygen during exercise is not yet completely understood, especially in those patients with exercise-induced desaturation. Aim: The goal of this study is to analyse the effect of supplemental oxygen given during a constant work rate exercise test (CWRET) on a cycle ergometer compared to sham air. Methods: We plan to include 25 Patients respiratory patients undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation (male and female; aged >18 years; stable condition >3 weeks (e.g. no exacerbations); resting oxygen saturation (SpO2) ≥ 88%) with exercise induced hypoxemia defined by a fall in oxygen saturation by ≥ 4% during a 6-minute walking test. Patients will undergo an incremental exercise test with a ramp protocol (for evaluating the maximal workload) and two CWRET (75% of the maximal workload) with ambulatory oxygen or placebo (sham air) via standard nasal canula at a flow rate of 5l/min. Patients and assessors will be blinded. The difference endurance time of the CWRET with oxygen vs. sham air will be the primary outcome of this study. Data will be summarized by means (SD) and medians (quartiles) for normal and non-normal distributions. Effects of treatment will be evaluated by mean differences with 95% confidence intervals, T-tests or Wilcoxon matched pair tests as appropriate. A p-value threshold of <0.05 or a confidence interval not including zero will be considered as statistically significant. Analyses will be performed according to the intention to treat principle.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Normobaric Hyperoxia combined with intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke.

OPTI-Oxygen is a single center, stepped wedged, cluster-randomized, un-blinded, pragmatic, comparing the use of a combined inspired oxygen (FiO2) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) titration strategy utilizing electronic health records (EHR) based electronic alerts (e-alerts) for respiratory therapists in mechanically ventilated critically ill adults. All eligible mechanically ventilated patients, FiO2 titration and SpO2 goal range will be based on the correlation between SpO2 and arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). E-alerts will be sent in the intervention arm as reminders for FiO2 titration. In the control arm, patients will have oxygen titrated per current standard of care (SpO2=88-92%, titrate FiO2 at least every 4 hours).
In this preliminary, crossover investigation the investigators will examine the effect of oxygen supplementation on the recovery of breathing in the immediate post-anesthesia period.
The purpose of this study is to understand how ketogenic food products affect oxygen toxicity in undersea divers. Oxygen toxicity affecting the central nervous system, mainly the brain, is a result of breathing higher than normal oxygen levels at elevated pressures as can be seen in SCUBA diving or inside a hyperbaric (pressure) chamber. This is a condition that may cause a wide variety of symptoms such as: vision disturbances, ear-ringing, nausea, twitching, irritability, dizziness, and potentially loss of consciousness or seizure. Because nutritional ketosis has been used to reduce or eliminate seizures in humans, it may be beneficial to reduce oxygen toxicity as well. The investigators hope this study will provide a help to develop practical and useful methods for improving the safety of undersea Navy divers, warfighters and submariners.
Oxygen therapy is the most common treatment modality for patients with hypoxemia in intensive care units, but target values for normoxemia are not clearly defined. Therefore, iatrogenic hyperoxemia is a very common situation. In intensive care units, FiO2 is usually adjusted according to hypoxia and hyperoxia is ignored in patients under mechanical ventilator support. Even though there are many side effects reported related to hyperoxemia and hyperoxemia is shown to be related to worse outcome than expected; clinicians still observe hyperoxemia frequently. Continuous ORi monitoring can be used for detecting and preventing hyperoxia. The ability to perform FiO2 titration with ORi may be an appropriate monitoring management to prevent the harmful effects of hyperoxia. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of ORi-guided FiO2 titration in preventing hyperoxia in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit and to determine the incidence of hyperoxia.
