Filter by:The objective of our study is to evaluate the effectiveness of prone position in preventing intubation or death in spontaneously ventilated patients with COVID-19 with acute respiratory failure.
The type of this study is an observational prospective study. It will be done to determine the oxygenation status of the intercostal muscles and quadriceps femoris muscle during exercise in patients with fibrosing lung and to examine its relationship with exercise capacity, respiratory functions and respiratory muscle strength. The main questions that the study aims to answer are: - Question 1: Do changes in muscle oxygenation during exercise affect respiratory functions in patients with Fibrosing Lung? - Question 2: Do changes in muscle oxygenation during exercise affect exercise capacity in patients with Fibrosing Lung? Participants; demographic information such as age, height, weight will be questioned. Respiratory functions will be evaluated with a desktop spirometer, peripheral muscle strength measurement will be evaluated with a digital myometer, and functional capacity will be evaluated with a 6-minute walk test (6MWT). The Moxy device, which is a non-invasive near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), will be attached to the upper leg (the vastus lateralis of the quadriceps muscle) and the rib (intercostal muscles) with a silk patch, and the oxygenation of the muscles here will be measured during the 6-minute walking test. In addition, fatigue status will be evaluated with the Modified Borg Scale.
High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy is increasingly used in the management of acute respiratory failure. Its clinical application has been largely investigated in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients but only marginally in patients experiencing acute respiratory failure after extubation. Promising data have been published in vitro about new asymmetrical high flow nasal cannula, named 'Optiflow + DUET'. Positive airway pressure, that dynamically changes with breathing, and clearance of anatomical dead space are the key mechanisms of noninvasive respiratory support with nasal high flow. Pressure mainly depends on flow rate and nare occlusion. The hypothesis is that an increase in asymmetrical occlusion of the nares leads to an improvement in dead-space clearance resulting in a reduction in re-breathing and breathing work.
Anesthesia induction is associated with hemodynamic imbalances that can affect the blood flow to major organs. Moreover it can result in deoxygenation as well. During standard anesthesia induction the patient is manually ventilated with a circle-valve-mask system until the effect of muscle relaxant shows of. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a modification of a well-known peripheral pulse oxymetry that is used in the detection of the regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) in organs, including brain, liver, muscle, and intestines. In this study we will compare the regional oxygenation status of the patients during anesthesia induction in which either standard manual ventilation or mechanical ventilator-assisted ventilation was performed. AutoFlow(R) mode of Draeger-Perseus mechanical ventilator will be used for the ventilator-assisted ventilation.
This prospective cohort study will determine the diagnostic accuracy of the Owlet OSS 3.0 monitor for the detection of episodes of bradycardia and/or hypoxemia among infants.
Healthcare systems around the world have been dealing with COVID 19. One of the main manifestations of this infection is lung involvement of varying degrees, causing a spectrum of diseases from mild lower respiratory tract infection to severe Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). One of the important clinical parameters is to detect hypoxia early in order to initiate a higher level of care at the earliest. The presence of silent or latent hypoxia has made this task difficult in COVID 19. Besides, critical findings such as silent hypoxia that is not at rest but triggered by effort can be revealed by some practical field tests such as the 6-minute walk test or the 1-minute chair sit and stand test. Moreover, these simple tools also help to investigate the patient's readiness for discharge. In this way, it will be useful to evaluate their usability in discharge decisions or in determining the post-discharge cardiopulmonary reserves of the patients and therefore their rehabilitation needs. Although walk and performance tests can be performed naturally, safely and simply, more similarly to movements in daily living activities compared to cardiopulmonary exercise tests, the interest in these tests has increased over the years, especially in subjects such as exercise capacity, mortality and morbidity expectation, or oxygen desaturation in patients with chronic cardiopulmonary pathology. The number of studies in 19 patients is quite limited. For this reason, the necessity of new studies on different field tests to detect the presence of latent hypoxia, which expresses the oxygen desaturation triggered by effort, and to evaluate the exercise tolerance status before discharge, has been emphasized in recent reviews.The aim of this study is to determine the presence of silent hypoxia, which expresses the oxygen desaturation triggered by effort, in Covid-19 patients and to compare the different short-term walk and performance tests, which the investigators consider easier and applicable in the conditions of the pandemic environment, with the classical gold standard test ( Six minute walk test) in order to evaluate the exercise tolerance status of the patients before discharge.
Clinical evaluation of the accuracy of SpO2 measurements with the ANNE Limb Sensor compared to blood gas analysis in healthy, adult subjects. Hypoxia is induced in patients to different and stable levels of SaO2 over the range of 70-100%.
With the oxygen mask with reservoir, oxygen can be given to patients with FiO2 values that can reach 80-100%. Reservoir oxygen mask is superior to other oxygen treatment methods with the high oxygen rate applied.Our hypothesis is that the use of an oxygen mask with a reservoir will reduce the incidence of respiratory complications in adult patients who will undergo sedation in the endoscopy unit.
The current methods of oxygen supply administer medicinal oxygen to the patient at a constant flow. Oxygen is being delivered when the patient needs it (at inhalation) and when the patient does not need it (at exhalation and at rest) if the volume of oxygen needs to be adjusted, the clinician typically increases the rate of flow in an effort to increase the oxygen concentration in the air inhaled by the patient. This traditional way of administering oxygen is clinically effective but it also wastes significant amounts of oxygen that the patient never uses. The BUFEO system addresses this problem by altering the supply of oxygen to an on-demand delivery model, the patient receives oxygen only when needed (during inhalation) and no oxygen is wasted at rest or during exhalation. The aim of this study is to evaluate, the efficacy, tolerability, and non-inferiority in SpO2 of the BUFEO device in saving oxygen and reaching a target SpO2 rate, in comparison to the standard of care by measuring the volume of oxygen used and the SpO2 reached when administering medical oxygen with the traditional supply method and through BUFEO system to hospitalized, oxygen-dependent subjects with pulmonary pathology.
In contrast to toxic CO concentrations, low-dose CO acts as a signaling molecule and can exert many complex cytoprotective effects. Therefore, the effects of low-dose CO are being investigated and developed as a new treatment method for use in various disease processes. However, these studies are mostly in vivo and in vitro studies and clinical studies have not reached a sufficient number. In this study, the effect of subclinical COHB levels on biomarkers such as TAS, TOS, HIF-1α will be evaluated.
