View clinical trials related to Hyperoxia.
Filter by:Obesity represents the excessive or abnormal accumulation of adipose tissue in the body, which affects health through its association with the risk of developing diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases and hypertension. Obesity can cause significant respiratory changes, so obese patients present pulmonary complications more frequently than individuals with normal weight. Intermittent hypoxia (IH) represents the alternation between repeated episodes of hypoxia interspersed with normoxic episodes. Intermittent hypoxia-hyperoxia is the therapy that uses hyperoxic intervals instead of normoxic ones between hypoxic breathing sessions. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of intermittent hypoxia-hyperoxia therapy among obese patients, focusing on metabolic and respiratory effects. The study aimed to determine if this method could bring benefits in managing or alleviating the complications associated with obesity. A total of 70 obese patients will be recruited and randomized to either the IHHT group or the control group. The intervention group will receive IHHT while the control group will not receive this therapy. All patients will be assessed at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment using a variety of clinical and functional measures. The study's results will be used to determine whether IHHT benefits the patients who follow it. This study is designed to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on treating obese patients. The results of the study will be of interest to clinicians, researchers, and patients.
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.
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.

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.
In patients under general anesthesia, the oxygen level (FiO2) used in inspiration is usually adjusted by monitoring the peripheral oxygen saturation level (SpO2). As a non-invasive method, SpO2 monitoring is known as one of the required methods that can be used to adjust FiO2 and detect and treat hypoxemia. While SpO2 approaching 100% matches the value of 128 mmHg in arterial partial oxygen pressure (PaO2), in cases where PaO2 increases more, the investigators cannot follow this situation with SpO2 and cannot prevent hyperoxemia. As stated in the literature, hyperoxemia has positive effects in general anesthesia and intensive care, as well as negative effects such as increased inflammation, oxidative stress and ischemia-reperfusion. In addition, acute lung injury, development of atelectasis, increased mortality, and critical illness rates have been associated with hyperoxemia in many publications. The only way the investigators can use to measure the level of hyperoxemia seems to be arterial blood gas analysis, and this method limits the investigators use because it is invasive. The Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi™) (Masimo Corp., Irvine, CA, USA) is a variable related to real-time oxygenation reserve status in the mildly hyperoxemic range (approximately 100 - 200 mmHg PaO2). ORi can be defined as a multi-wavelength, noninvasive pulse co-oximetry sensor. ORi is a dimensionless index ranging from 0.00 (no reserve) to 1.00 (maximum reserve) depending on the oxygenation reserve status. There are very few studies in the literature using ORi to detect hyperoxemia. The investigators thought that if FiO2 levels used in preoxygenation, anesthesia maintenance and recovery stages in day surgeries were correlated with ORi levels, a threshold value could be determined for FiO2 levels during anesthesia stages in cases where invasive arterial blood gas could not be followed. This study aims to determine the relationship between SpO2, FiO2 and ORi during general anesthesia, to investigate the usefulness of ORi in determining the FiO2 threshold value during anesthesia stages as an indicator of hyperoxemia, and to investigate the effects of these values on the hemodynamics, recovery, agitation and nausea-vomiting states of the patients.
Normoxia Hyperoxia (NBO) is a neuroprotective approach that can be implemented early. NBO is simple and non-invasive and can be used at home or in an ambulance to ensure the shortest possible time after cerebral ischemia occurs. The previous study by the investigators suggested that NBO therapy in the early stage of cerebral ischemia has a neuroprotective effect on ischemic brain injury. Although the neuroprotective effect of NBO has been demonstrated, the optimal duration of treatment for NBO to exert neuroprotective effect is still unclear. Therefore, further discussion of the duration of NBO treatment will contribute to the clinical application of NBO and provide a definite theoretical basis for the treatment of cerebral infarction.
The study aimed to evaluate different preoxygenation methods (tidal volume for 3 minutes and 4 deep breaths) in pregnant women with oxygen reserve index (ORI). After the routine monitoring of healthy ASA II pregnant patients between the ages of 18-45, different preoxygenation methods will be applied, and the oxygen status of the patients will be compared with ORI monitoring.
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass is a common surgical therapy for patients suffering from coronary artery diseases. The heart is subjected to a long period of ischemia due to the occlusion of the aorta. The heavy burden of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) thus induces cardiomyocyte death, which can paradoxically reduce the beneficial effect of CABG. Preconditioning by moderate hypoxia or hyperoxia serves as an effective drug-free method to increase the organism's resistance to negative effects, including IRI.
Supplemental oxygen is frequently administered in acutely and critically ill patients, specifically, it is often administered in trauma patients to avoid arterial hypoxemia and tissue hypoxia. There is also an increasing focus on potentially deleterious effects of hyperoxia. Further, the hemodynamic response to hyperoxia in hypovolemia is poorly understood. The present study aims to investigate the effects of supplemental oxygen on systemic and cerebral hemodynamics in simulated hypovolemia in healthy volunteers.
The aim of the study was to assess the effect of intraoperative oxygen (O2), which was applied at 30% and 50% concentrations on patients who had undergone septoplasty surgery, on Total Oxidant Status (TOS), Total Antioxidant Status (TAS), and Oxidative Stress Index (OSI).
