About this study

Accuracy of the oximeter.

Read the detailed description

The conventional pulse oximeter has been a standard in clinical care for non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring, which only measures the arterial blood oxygenation. There are many clinical situations where tissue hypoxia may exist despite normal values obtained by conventional pulse oximeter. This can be cause by inadequate monitoring of oxygen demand (i.e. venous oxygen saturation) of the tissues.

The existing method for venous blood oxygenation monitored is either through an invasive fiber optic catheter, or intermittently by blood sampling and CO-oximetry. However, catheterization can be costly and can include inherent risks. Therefore, due to the inherent risks of catheterization, venous oximetry is limited only to those critically ill patients. The clinical application of venous oximetry is numerous, including severe sepsis and septic shock, severe trauma and hemorrhagic shock, and heart failure and cardiac arrest.

More complete information on patient hemodynamics can be provided by non-invasively monitoring of venous blood oxygenation.

Being tested
Mespere Oximeter, Radiometer OSM-3 Co-Oximeter

What participants receive

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

  • Mespere OximeterDevice

    Mespere oximeter provides non-invasive venous blood oxygen saturation.

  • Radiometer OSM-3 Co-OximeterDevice

    OSM-3, a Radiometer manufactured hemoximeter, is intended for the photometric determination of hemoglobin.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy Volunteers, run by Mespere Lifesciences Inc. 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 1 inclusion and 5 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 3 Oct 2014. 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?

Venous Oxygen Saturation Accuracy Verification against Co-Oximeter (time frame: approximately 1 hour). 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 3 Oct 2014.
