Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the FreeO2 system on the quality of the oxygen therapy in confirmed or suspected SARS-CoV-2 patients in the emergency department. The quality of oxygen therapy is evaluated by the time spent in the SpO2 target (+/- 2% SpO2 target), time spent in hyperoxemia (> 5% SpO2 target), time spent in hyperoxemia (<5% SpO2 target).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Automated oxygen titrationDevice

    Also called FreeO2 System TM, Oxy'nov.inc.

    Automated oxygen administration to maintain the SpO2 target at a predefined value during emergency length of stay

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of time in the saturation target in patients on automated oxygen titration device.

    The percentage of time in target is defined by the percentage of time of (Target - 3% target) < SpO2 value < (Target + 3%) of the selected Spo2 target using automated oxygen titration device.

    Measured: From the initiation of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 until the date of emergency department discharge or Stop of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 whichever came first, assessed up to 3 day after emergency admission

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Oxygenation data - hyperoxemia

    The percentage of time in hyperoxemia defined as a SpO2 value > 5% from the target.

    Measured: From the initiation of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 until the date of emergency department discharge or Stop of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 whichever came first, assessed up to 3 day after emergency admission

  2. Oxygenation data - severe hypoxemia

    The percentage of time in hypoxemia defined as a SpO2 value < 85%

    Measured: From the initiation of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 until the date of emergency department discharge or Stop of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 whichever came first, assessed up to 3 day after emergency admission

  3. Oxygenation data - mild hypoxemia

    The percentage of time in mild hypoxemia defined as a : (Target - 5% target) < SpO2 value < (Target - 2%)

    Measured: From the initiation of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 until the date of emergency department discharge or Stop of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 whichever came first, assessed up to 3 day after emergency admission

  4. automated oxygen therapy duration

    Length of total time on automated oxygen therapy in the emergency department in hours.

    Measured: From the initiation of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 until the date of emergency department discharge or Stop of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 whichever came first, assessed up to 3 day after emergency admission

  5. Ventilatory support

    Need of change in ventilatory support device : (mechanical ventilation, non-invasive mechanical ventilation, high flow nasal canula, oxygen therapy) during emergency length of stay

    Measured: From the initiation of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 until hospital discharge, assessed up to 2 months after emergency admission

  6. Emergency length of stay.

    Time of stay in hours in the emergency department.

    Measured: From emergency departement admission until the date of emergency department discharge assessed up to 3 day after emergency admission

  7. Hospital length of stay.

    Time of stay in hours during hospitalisation Time of stay in hospitalisation setting (excluding the intensive care unit) and intensive care unit in days.

    Measured: From emergency departement admission until the date of hospital discharge assessed up to 2 months after emergency admission

  8. Orientation of care

    Describe departement admission (emergency observation, general ward ,intensive care unit)

    Measured: From emergency departement admission until the date of hospital discharge assessed up to 2 months after emergency admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 and Hypoxemia, run by Laval University at 1 site in Canada.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 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 Canada. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact François Lellouche, MD, PhD (418-656-8711 ext. 3572, francois.lellouche@criucpq.ulaval.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of time in the saturation target in patients on automated oxygen titration device. (time frame: From the initiation of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 until the date of emergency department discharge or Stop of oxygen therapy with FreeO2 whichever came first, assessed up to 3 day after emergency admission). 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 11 Feb 2022.
