About this study

Official title: The Use of Oxygen Hoods in Patients Failing on Conventional High-flow Oxygen Delivery Systems, the Effects on Oxygenation, Mechanical Ventilation and Mortality Rates in Hypoxic Patients With COVID-19. A Prospective Controlled Cohort Study.

To determine whether the use of oxygen hoods as compared to conventional high-flow oxygen delivery systems, and the effects on oxygenation, mechanical ventilation and mortality rates in hypoxic patients with COVID-19.

Read the detailed description

To determine whether Oxygen hoods improve O2-saturation (SaO2), and how they effect length of hospitalization, and in-hospital mechanical ventilation and mortality rates in Covid-19 patients when compared to conventional high-flow oxygen delivery systems. Oxy-hemoglobin saturation is continuously measured by pulse-oximetry including immediately before and after oxygen hood placement, and will be measured in controls.

Comparison/Control Group The control cohort includes COVID-19 patients presenting for treatment prior to 4/3/20 when hyperbaric oxygen hoods were not available. Patients maintained on, or those failing on conventional O2- delivery systems and subsequently receiving mechanical ventilation will be studied.

All patients included must have tested positive using PCR swabs and/or been diagnosed based on clinical/laboratory standard diagnostic criteria. Medical management will include evolving treatment regimens and other standard medical treatments widely used at time of study in all hypoxic COVID-19 patients.

Prognostic/confounding covariates are to be collected through Electronic Medical Record (EMR) chart review and compared between intervention and control cohorts. including: Age, Body Mass Index (BMI), Gender, Chronic Lung disease - COPD, Asthma (CLD), cardiovascular disease - CAD, CHF, Chronic Dysrhythmia (CVD), chronic kidney disease (CKD), Immunosuppression - History of Cancer, Immunosuppressive medication, HIV (Immunosuppression), Diabetes Mellitus (DM), and pertinent lab markers.

Routine follow-up evaluation is maintained until final in-hospital outcomes are known including:

  1. Oxygen Difference pre/post-hood (SaO2 difference, %)
  2. Intubation/MV status (Intubated)
  3. Survival/Mortality (Expired)
  4. Hospital Length of Stay (LOS, days)

Randomization/Blinding Randomization is not possible as it is unethical to deny a hypoxic patient an alternative approved means of oxygenation for patients failing on conventional oxygen delivery systems. No blinding of participants or investigators.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID -19 and Respiratory Failure, run by Northwell Health at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 2 Dec 2022. 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 States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Oxygen saturation (time frame: 3/6/2020 - 5/1/2020). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04407260, which also lists 19 linked publications.

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 2 Dec 2022.
