About this study

Official title: Randomized Trial of One Versus Three Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments for Acute CO Poisoning

This randomized trial will investigate important clinical outcomes of patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning randomized to receive either one or three hyperbaric oxygen treatments.

Read the detailed description

All patients presenting with acute carbon monoxide poisoning will receive one hyperbaric oxygen treatment (barring contraindications for hyperbaric oxygen therapy). After this treatment, eligible patients who provide consent will be randomly allocated to receive two sham sessions, or two additional hyperbaric oxygen sessions administered in a double-blind fashion.

Outcome measures will be administered at 6 weeks and 6 months.

Being tested
Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) - 3 sessions, Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) - 1 session

What participants receive

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

  • Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) - 3 sessionsCombination product

    Also called Hyperbaric Oxygen, HBO2, HBO, HBOT

    Before patients are offered an opportunity to participate in this study, they will receive a single hyperbaric oxygen session. During the first session, hyperbaric oxygen will be administered at 3.0 atmospheres absolute (atm abs) for 25 minutes breathing oxygen, 5 minutes air breathing, 25 minutes oxygen breathing, 5 minutes air breathing, pressure reduced to 2.0 atm abs for 30 minutes breathing oxygen, 5 minutes air breathing, and 30 minutes oxygen breathing.

    For the second and third hyperbaric oxygen sessions, the subject will breathe 100% oxygen delivered at 2 atm abs for 90 minutes with two 5-minute air breathing periods.

  • Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) - 1 sessionCombination product

    Also called HBO2

    During the first session, hyperbaric oxygen will be administered at 3.0 atmospheres absolute (atm abs) for 25 minutes breathing oxygen, 5 minutes air breathing, 25 minutes oxygen breathing, 5 minutes air breathing, pressure reduced to 2.0 atm abs for 30 minutes breathing oxygen, 5 minutes air breathing, and 30 minutes oxygen breathing.

    The second and third chamber sessions are sham sessions: room air delivered at 1.0 atmospheres absolute for 90 minutes with two sham 5-minute air breathing periods.

What is being measured

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

  1. 6-week cognitive sequelae

    Presence of cognitive sequelae at 6-week follow-up

    Measured: 6 weeks after poisoning

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Neurological examination

    Presence of neurological abnormalities

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months after poisoning

  2. Depression, anxiety or post-traumatic stress syndrome

    Presence of depression, anxiety, or PTSD symptoms

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months after poisoning

  3. Vocational assessment

    Results of vocational testing

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months after poisoning

  4. Patient self-reports of CO-related problems

    Participant-reported outcome

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) - 3 sessions and Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) - 1 session in people with Carbon Monoxide Poisoning, run by Intermountain Health Care, Inc. at 2 sites 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 4 inclusion and 18 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 12 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

6-week cognitive sequelae (time frame: 6 weeks after poisoning). 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 NCT00465855, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Feb 2021.
