Effects of an Oxymizer on Endurance Time in Patients With Chronic Lung Diseases
A study testing Oxymizer and conventional nasal cannula in people with COPD and Interstitial Lung Disease, run by Schön Klinik Berchtesgadener Land at 1 site in Germany.
Trial summary
The Oxymizer pendant® is a special oxygen cannula that can be used to supply high flow long term oxygen therapy. It is compatible with a wide variety of oxygen sources. In a reservoir, the Oxymizer® stores pure oxygen so that the concentration of inhaled oxygen is increased. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Effects of an Oxymizer Versus Conventional Nasal Cannula on Endurance Time in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease IV (COPD) or Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)
The Oxymizer pendant® is a special oxygen cannula that can be used to supply high flow long term oxygen therapy. It is compatible with a wide variety of oxygen sources. In a reservoir, the Oxymizer® stores pure oxygen so that the concentration of inhaled oxygen is increased.
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential benefit of the Oxymizer® with regard to the blood oxygenation during exercise testing. Given that the "endurance time" is very sensitive for little changes in exercise capacity, this test will be used to show the difference between the Oxymizer® and a conventional nasal cannula regarding exercise duration at 70% of peak Watt and oxygenation.
The tests will be accompanied by blood gas analysis, partial pressure of carbon dioxide and heart rate.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 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 Germany. 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?
Difference between Endurance time with Oxymizer and conventional nasal cannula (time frame: From starting until stopping cycling, up to 60 minutes). 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?
