Filter by:The Lumerah System, developed and manufactured by Raydiant Oximetry, Inc., is a non-invasive fetal pulse oximeter that measures fetal arterial oxygen saturation using safe, non-invasive, transabdominal near-infrared spectroscopy. The Lumerah System is intended as an adjunct to cardiotocography. In this study, women in labor will also be simultaneously monitored with a re-engineered version of the previously approved transvaginal oximeter sensor connected to a Nellcor N-400 fetal oximetry monitor for the purposes of device development. The data obtained from the transabdominal sensor and the transvaginal sensor will be used for research purposes only and will not be used to guide or alter patient management.
The primary aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of ORI and rcSO2 in predicting hypoxia early in obese patients who are sensitive to hypoxia. Our secondary aim is; To determine whether there is a correlation between the changing trend of ORI and rcSO2 in obese patients.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the occurrence of hypoxemia (an abnormally low concentration of oxygen in the blood) in trauma patients within the first 24 hours of hospital admission following arrival to a trauma center. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Do trauma patients experience hypoxemia during the initial 24 hours of hospital admission following trauma? - What is the daily distribution of potential hypoxemic episodes? The investigators expect that hypoxemic episodes will be more frequent during the night (20.00-07.59) than during the day (08.00-19.59) An additional pulse oximeter will be attached to the participants, which measures oxygen saturation in the blood during the first 24 hours of hospital admission after trauma.
The purpose of this study is to assess patients with chronic heart failure and moderate-severe ventricular dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction (FEVE) <40%) with nocturnal desaturation (mean Oxygen saturation (SatO2) <90% and/or Cummulative time (TC) <90% > 22 minutes) without underlying respiratory disease, oxygen treatment during hours of night rest will reduce exacerbations, improve the ability to effort, sleep quality and poor prognostic parameters of heart failure, compared to patients not receiving oxygen treatment.
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a validated treatment in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), improving exercise tolerance, quality of life and dyspnea. However, 20 to 30% of patients did not respond to PR and particularly those with chronic hypoxaemia. In most disabled patients, High Intensity Interval training (HIIT) is an alternative to perform exercise training with similar gain in exercise capacity than continuous exercise training. In patients with exercise-induced oxygen desaturation, the repetitions of hypoxia/resaturation phases during intermittent exercise could result in bursts of oxidative stress and induce positive or detrimental effect on mitochondrial function according to the importance in the oxidant stimulus. Few data have ascertained the benefit of HIIT on mitochondrial oxidative capacity (Vmax) in healthy subjects compared to continuous exercise training but no data are available in COPD patients with exercise-induced desaturation, and the change in oxidative stress in such training regimen. The investigators hypothesize that the repetitive bursts of oxidative stress and the improved antioxidant capacity in the course of the training sessions would stimulate mitochondrial adaptations to a larger extent after HIIT than continuous exercise training in severe COPD patients with hypoxemia. Moreover, they will assess the relationship between the change in oxidative stress in blood and in muscle. The clinical relevance of this study will be to ascertain the benefit and the safety of HITT in this subgroup of COPD patients in whom benefit of PR is often weak.
Sedoanalgesia is applied to patients during gastrointestinal endoscopy. Sedoanalgesia may cause respiratory depression and hypoxia in patients. During these procedures, patients should be given oxygen support to reduce the incidence of hypoxia.This study aimed to compare the efficacy and procedural performance of two different airway devices (Wei Nasal Jet Tube vs Nasal Cannula Oxygen Support) in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
The prone position consists of placing the patient on his or her stomach with the head on the side, during sessions lasting several hours a day and could help spontaneous ventilate the patient.
Patients with one or more organ failure (heart, lung) require hospitalization in intensive care where these failures can be managed. Nearly 30% of patients in intensive care units are hospitalized for acute respiratory distress (lung failure). This failure occurs in about 20% of postoperative patient, but it can also occur in the context of a pathology specific to the lung or after weaning of mechanical ventilation. It is therefore interesting to develop several techniques to provide oxygen to these patients with the aim in particular to avoid the use of intubation (insertion of a tube into the trachea to achieve artificial ventilation). For the past ten years, High-Flow Nasal Canula (HFNC) has developed. This technique reduces the need for intubation but the studies are contradictory, however they agree on its ease of use and the few risks associated with it. The principle of this technique is to deliver a humidified and heated gas mixture at a high rate through large nasal cannula. The advantage of this device is its non-invasive and the possibility of administering a large amount of oxygen. There is a certain craze for this oxygenation technique despite few scientific studies in the literature. However, it requires the expertise of the medical and paramedical team so as not to delay intubation. The investigators propose to carry out an observational study (without any modification of the usual practices) with epidemiological aim in order to make an inventory of the modes of use of the HFNC, in particular on its frequency of use and on its duration of use per patient hospitalized in intensive care. The investigators will recruit all HFNC patients in intensive care units (20 centers) (30 patients / center): 15 after weaning of mechanical ventilation and 15 others for other reasons. Patients will be followed every day and up to 48 hours after removal of the HFNC.
The main objective of the study is to assess the "FreeDom" innovative strategy (FreeO2 at Domicile) to reduce hospitalization duration in patients with COPD exacerbation. This strategy associates early hospital discharge, automated O2 flow weaning with FreeO2 system, telemedicine and tele-rehabilitation. The main hypothesis of this study is that the FreeDom strategy will reduce the number of hospitalization day by 50 percent at day 30.
