Filter by:The purpose of the study is to assess the optimal fraction of inspired oxygen (0.5 or 1) for extubation or removal of a supraglottic airway device after general anesthesia.
Most premature babies require oxygen therapy. There is uncertainty about what oxygen levels are the best. The oxygen levels in the blood are measured using a monitor called a saturation monitor and the oxygen the baby breathes is adjusted to keep the level in a target range. Although there is evidence that lower oxygen levels maybe harmful, it is not known how high they need to be for maximum benefit. Very high levels are also harmful. Saturation monitors are not very good for checking for high oxygen levels. For this a different kind of monitor, called a transcutaneous monitor, is better. Keeping oxygen levels stable is usually done by nurses adjusting the oxygen levels by hand (manual control). There is also equipment available that can do this automatically (servo control). It is not known which is best. Research suggests that different automated devices control oxygen effectively as measured by the readings from their internal oxygen saturation monitoring systems. When compared to free-standing saturation monitors there appears to be variations in measured oxygen levels between devices. This could have important clinical implications. This study aims to show the different achieved oxygen levels when babies are targeted to a set target range. Babies in the study will have both a saturation monitor and a transcutaneous oxygen monitor at the same time. Both types of monitor have been in long term use in neonatal units. For a period of 12 hours, each baby will have their oxygen adjusted automatically using two different internal oxygen monitoring technologies (6 hours respectively). The investigators will compare the range of oxygen levels that are seen between the two oxygen saturation monitoring technologies. The investigators will study babies born at less than 30 weeks gestation, who are at least 2 days old, on nasal high flow and still require added oxygen.
The impact of oxygen therapy in many pathologies has been subject of recent work, arguing both favourable and harmful effects. Consequently, one can wonder about the influence of hyperoxic gas mixture during diving on the genesis of decompression sickness, but also about the systematic application of normobaric and hyperbaric oxygen in case of proven decompression sickness. In mammals, normoxic concentrations have been redefined at 20-100 mbars at the extracellular level and below 10 mbars in the mitochondria. Under hyperbaric conditions, most of the oxygen being dissolved in blood plasma, a state of hyperoxia is established which escapes the usual delivery and regulation system represented by red blood cells. The results of our team's previous work suggest a specific effect of diving on the levels of circulating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), suggesting cellular destruction linked to hyperoxia/hyperbaria. In fact, our studies, carried out on both animals and human divers, have shown that diving accident leads to an increase in mtDNA levels and an immune reaction through the mobilisation of leukocytes. The main objective of this study is to compare the influence of oxygen partial pressure levels on the evolution of clinical and biological variables during hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions in healthy versus injured divers.
In our study, we aimed to observe the usability of non-invasive monitoring methods in oxygenation management, using non-invasive monitoring techniques, preventing hyperoxia and avoiding oxidative damage-related complications in patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery.
To assess oxygenation with the oxygen reserve index in desflurane anesthesia administration using low and high fresh gas flows for tympanomastoidectomy surgeries.
The current endovascular treatment has increased the recanalization rate to more than 90%. Even so, the prognosis rate of stroke is still less than 50%. Our previous research confirmed that the neuroprotective effect of Normobaric Hyperoxia (NBO) from multiple perspectives. However, the clinical study on NBO was not satisfactory, which might be due to the absence of vascular recanalization therapy. Therefore, The investigators conducted this RCT study to further explore the Efficacy and safety of NBO combined with endovascular treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

It is not known which is best. Studies of automated control have shown that infants spend more time within their intended target oxygen saturation range. These have not included measurements of transcutaneous oxygen. There are no previous studies directly comparing automated respiratory devices. The investigators aim to show the transcutaneous oxygen levels as well as the oxygen saturation levels when babies have their oxygen adjusted using two automated (servo) control devices delivering nasal high flow. For a period of 12 hours each baby will have their oxygen adjusted automatically using each devices for 6 hours respectively. The investigators will compare the range of oxygen levels that are seen between the two respiratory devices.
Oxygen therapy is administered to all patients during general anesthesia to maintain tissue oxygenation and prevent hypoxia and ischemia. However, liberal use of oxygen may lead to hyperoxia and some studies suggest that supranormal levels of arterial oxygen saturation may lead to complications. In this post hoc substudy of the VISION cohort, we plan to assess the association between perioperative inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2) and myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of supraphysiologic oxygen (hyperoxia) on myocardial function in anaesthetized patients with coronary artery disease.
We evaluated the prognostic role of the intraoperative arterial oxygen partial pressures (PaO2) on postoperative patient and graft survival in living donor kidney transplantations.
