About this study

Official title: Does BoussignacTM CPAP Compared to Venturi Mask Improve Oxygenation and Pulmonary Function in Morbidly Obese Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery?

This is a randomized controlled study in which morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery will be recruited in the preoperative clinic. Patients will be randomized into 2 groups to receive oxygen with Boussignac TM continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or conventional Venturi mask postoperatively immediately after extubation. The objective of the study is to examine if Boussignac TM CPAP results in improved oxygenation versus Venturi face mask when it is applied immediately after extubation in morbidly obese patients post bariatric surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • Boussignac TM CPAPDevice

    Post-operative patients will be fitted with a Boussignac TM CPAP mask immediately after extubation and oxygenation and pulmonary function will be measured over a 24 hour period.

  • Venturi Face MaskDevice

    Post-operative patients will be fitted with a Venturi face mask immediately after extubation and oxygenation and pulmonary function will be measured over a 24 hour period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Boussignac TM CPAP and Venturi Face Mask in people with Morbid Obesity, run by University Health Network, Toronto 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 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Contact David Wong, MD (4166035118, david.wong@uhn.on.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PaO2/FiO2 ratio (PF ratio) immediately on arrival to postanesthesia care unit, 1 hour, 2 hours, and 24 hours post-extubation. (time frame: 24 hours). 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?
