About this study

Official title: Preoxygenation With High Flow Nasal Oxygenation Using Optiflow - Does Speech Have an Effect on The End Tidal Oxygen Achieved When Compared to Closed Mouth Nasal Breathing?

If a patient speaks during the process of preoxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygen via the Optiflow™ system, is the efficacy reduced as measured by end-tidal lung oxygen content?

Read the detailed description

This is a randomised controlled trial on 34 patients undergoing routine elective surgery at the Princess Anne Hospital, Southampton. The study will take place from September 2018 to January 2019 and involve preoxygenating all participants for three minutes using the Optiflow™ device. During this time, participants will be instructed to either read aloud a standardised text or to breathe through their nose with a closed mouth. At the end of 3 minutes, the primary outcome, ETO2, will be measured and recorded.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Optiflow in people with Unrecognized Condition, run by University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Oct 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

End Tidal Oxygen Fraction (time frame: At the end of 3 minutes preoxygenation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Oct 2020.
