Active clinical trials for "Hypoxia"

Obesity is associated with adverse airway events including desaturation during deep sedation. Previous studies have suggested that high-flow nasal oxygenation may be superior to regular (low-flow) nasal cannula for prevention of hypoxia during Sedated Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in non-obesity patients. The prerequisite of high-flow nasal oxygenation is keeping airway patency. Our pervious study demonstrated that nasopharyngeal airway has the similar efficacy of jaw-lift. In present study we aimed to determine whether high-flow nasal oxygenation combined with nasopharyngeal airway could reduce the incidence of hypoxia during Sedated Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in obese patients.

Investigation of the Clinical Efficacy of High Flow Nasal Oxygen in Patients Over 60 Years of Age Undergoing Colonoscopy

The aim of the project is to experimentally compare the fingers of the hand in terms of measured concentrations of peripheral blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) in healthy humans during gradual desaturation in the range of 60-100% SpO2 and simultaneously during a step change from the hypoxic phase to the recovery phase (return to physiological values).

To study the safety and efficacy of intranasal administration of exosomes derived from mesenchymal stromal cells on long-term neurodevelopmental outcome in extremely low birth weight infants born at gestational age 25/0-27/6 weeks.

Endotracheal intubation in infants often involves more than one attempt, and oxygen desaturation is common. It is unclear whether nasal high-flow therapy, which extends the time to desaturation during elective intubation in infants receiving general anesthesia, can decrease the occurence of desaturation during intubation. The investigators tested the hypothesis that high-flow nasal oxygen cannulae would be effective in maintaining oxygen saturation during intubation than facemasks for pre-oxygenation. The investigators randomly allocated 84 patients undergoing elective surgery aged <=12 months to pre-oxygenation using either high-flow nasal oxygen or facemask.

The goal of this four-part preclinical [I-II] and clinical [III-IV] trial is to compare, with randomised crossover study design [I-IV], a new medical airway device with standard procedure (biteblock or no device) for upper airway patency during sedation with intravenous propofol [I-IV]. - Page 1 of 9 [DRAFT] - The two main questions it aims to answer are if this new airway device is superior to standard procedure with respect to maintenance of spontaneous ventilation [I] and upper airway volumes [II] at moderate and deep steady-state levels of sedation in healthy volunteer study participants, and fewer and less lasting bedside signs of respiratory depression [III-IV], and less adjuvant use of manual airway support [III-IV] during procedural sedation (PS) according to standard of care(SOC) in study patients scheduled for colonoscopy or ureteral catheterisation under PS. Owing to the crossover study design used throughout the trial, there are no comparison groups of study participants [I-II] or study patients [III-IV].

Hypoxia is a common adverse event during sedated hysteroscopy for assisted reproduction, and it is more likely to occur in overweight or obese patients. In sedated gastroscopy, the incidence of hypoxia with remimazolam is lower than that with propofol. The present study is a single-center, randomized, single-blind, controlled clinical trial. Overweight or obese patients undergoing sedated hysteroscopy for diagnosis and treatment, with ASA grade I or II, were selected as subjects and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 300 subjects in each group. Sedation induction and maintenance are performed using remimazolam or propofol combined with remifentanil, respectively, to compare the incidence of hypoxia during surgery between the two groups of patients.

The proposed randomized controlled trial aims at comparing the application of the prone position in spontaneously breathing patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure from any cause versus standard treatment on the rate of invasive mechanical ventilation or all-cause of mortality. The secondary endpoints will include time to tracheal intubation and effects of awake proning on the oxygenation parameters, dyspnea sensation, complications, and tolerance. Other endpoints are ventilation free-days at 28 days, duration of invasive ventilation, length of ICU and hospital stay, ICU and hospital mortality, and 28, 60, and 90-day mortality.

Hypoxia represents the prevailing adverse occurrence during the sedation of patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy with propofol. A recent innovation in this domain is the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway-a multifaceted device that encompasses capnography monitoring, bite block , oxygenation support, and oropharyngeal airway management. This device has been purposefully designed to cater to the unique requirements of endoscopic procedures. The principal objective of our randomized study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway reduce the incidence of hypoxia on patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy under propofol sedation.

The aim of the project is to experimentally compare SpO2 measured on a wrist by commercial Smartwach and on a finger measured by a medical-grade pulse oximeter in healthy humans during gradual desaturation in the range of 60-100% SpO2 and simultaneously during a step change from the hypoxic phase to the recovery phase (return to physiological values).
