Filter by:Twelwe patients with COPD and long term oxygen treatment (LTOT) will be included in the study. An automated home oxygen titrations (HOT) device will be attached to the patient´s home oxygen equipment. For 2x4 consequent days, the patients will be monitored and saturations, oxygen flow and physical activity level will be registered. In randomized order, the patients will use their usual fixed oxygen dose or automated oxygen titration during the first four days and then crossover. The monitoring consists of a wrist pulse oximeter (register pulse and saturation which is send to the HOT device) and a physical activity sensor attached to the patient's knee. At study start and after both of the four days the patients´dyspnea and QoL will be assessed. After the study period the patients will in an explorative design based on qualitative methodology be interviewed in order to explore the patients experiences with automated oxygen titration during daily activity and on dyspnea.
In an individual's SpO2 range from 100 to 73 %, this study calibrates and evaluates the accuracy of SpO2 measurement by CW2 in comparison to reference pulse oximeter (Nellcor PM10) or CO-oximetry, Pulse rate (PR) and respiratory rate (RR) were calibrated based on the same Nellcor equipment and the frequency of end-tidal CO2 respectively.
Due to their effects on hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV), dihydropyridine calcium channel inhibitors (CCI) could lead to hypoxia in patients with a pulmonary shunt. To the present time only preclinical studies and case reports focused on this potential adverse drug reaction. We aimed to assess the reporting association between CCI and hypoxia using the World Health Organization pharmacovigilance database (VigiBase®).
To compare pulse oximetry saturation measurements, during normal to low saturation, to saturation measurements made by a multi-wavelength CO-oximeter, taken from arterial blood samples from healthy human subjects.
Ciprofol is a new general anesthetic, which combine with γ- Aminobutyric acid-a (GABAA) receptor. Ciprofol has shown equivalent anesthetic efficacy of propofol at 1/4 to 1/5 of the dosage. Ciprofol has the pharmacodynamic characteristics of rapid onset, stable and rapid recovery. Phase III clinical results showed that the incidence of injection pain and respiratory and circulatory depression of ciprofol was lower than that of propofol. Therefore, ciprofol has a good application prospect in the sedation for gastrointestinal endoscopy, especially for overweight and obese patients. We conduct a Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Propofol-controlled Study to Evaluate the incidence of hypoxia and severe hypoxia during Gastroenterological Endoscope sedated with CiProfol in Overweight or Obesity patients.
In this current study, the examiners examine some of the mechanisms of how Acute Intermittent Hypoxia (AIH) effects the upper extremity of survivors of spinal cord injury. This is accomplished both with the use of a load cell to determine elbow strength changes and high density grid electromyography (EMG) to record bicep muscle activations before and after bouts of AIH
After obtaining the approval of the hospital ethics committee, this prospective, observational study included written informed consent from 51 participants with 19<BMI<25 m/kg2 and 51 participants with BMI>40 m/kg2 undergoing an elective surgical requiring endotracheal intubation. In addition to standard monitors, an oxygen reserve index (ORI) sensor was placed and baseline values were recorded. The participants were preoxygenated until end expiratory oxygen concentration (EtO2) is reached 90%. After anesthesia induction and endotracheal intubation, the breathing circuit was not connected endotracheal tube until the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) decreased until 95%.ORİ and SpO2 values were continuously recorded. Time of tolerable apnea, ORI warning, SpO2 warning and added warning were also recorded.
Pulse oximetry offers real time and non-invasive estimation of arterial oxygen saturation in a cost-effective way, and has become a critical tool in guiding the usage of supplemental oxygen in sick newborns. During postnatal transition, pulmonary pressure decreases upon the activation of the lungs, and the ductus arteriosus constricts and closes upon the increase of partial oxygen pressure, which is negatively correlated with altitude. As a result, postnatal transition may be different at high altitudes. Umbilical cord blood gas analysis is now recommended in all high-risk deliveries because of its' value in providing information about preceding fetal hypoxic stress. But there are only limited studies about the SpO2 measurements during the first few hours after birth and umbilical blood gas analysis at high altitudes, especially at altitudes above 2500m. The primary outcome of the study is to determine the reference intervals for preductal oxygen saturation during first 2 hours of life stratified by different gestational age. The secondary outcomes is to establish the pH and lactate cutoff value of umbilical arterial blood gas at different altitude level.
This study aims to determine the effect of acute mild intermittent hypoxia on ankle plantarflexor muscle output during balance regulation and walking in younger and older adults. Fifteen younger adults and 15 older adults will be recruited to participate in the cross-over design study that requires 2 visits (at least 1-week apart). Participants will be pseudo-randomly assigned to receive either intermittent hypoxia or sham during the first visit, and then switch over to receive sham or intermittent hypoxia during the 2nd visit. Muscle activation patterns and kinetic and kinematics during standing and walking will be recorded before and after the intermittent hypoxia/sham. It is hypothesized that compared to the sham condition, both younger and older participants will show greater increases in ankle plantarflexor muscle activation during gait and balance assessments following intermittent hypoxia.
In this study, the effects of nicardipine and esmolol applied for controlled hypotension in rhinoplasty on hemodynamics and regional renal oxygenation will be investigated.
