About this study

Official title: Validation of a Miniature SpO2 Sensor in Healthy Subjects and Patients With Long-term Oxygen Therapy. A Prospective, Method Comparison, Proof of Concept Study.

By integrating a miniaturized pulse oximetry sensor into the frame of oxygen delivery glasses which dissimulates the nasal cannula, the investigators hope to optimize and long term oxygen therapy (LTOT) regarding medical and social aspects. The validation of the novel SpO2 sensor is the first step in the concept of personalized, dynamic delivery of oxygen by eyeglasses using a closed-loop system.

Read the detailed description

Objectives:

  1. To determine accuracy of SpO2 measurements by the novel sensor compared to 2 reference pulse oximeters in healthy subjects undergoing a normobaric hypoxic challenge provoking SpO2 desaturation.
  2. To determine accuracy of SpO2 measurements by the novel sensor compared to 2 reference pulse oximeters and to arterial blood gas analysis in patients qualifying for LTOT, breathing room air at rest (lying, sitting, standing position) and during exercise (slow walking, 6-MWT, ergometer cycle).

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of accuracy in patients

    Assessment of the accuracy of the novel pulse oximeter sensor in patients qualifying for LTOT over the entire saturation range by calculating accuracy root mean square (ARMS). Continuous SpO2 measurement of the novel pulse oximeter will be compared to measurements assessed by 2 standard pulse oximeters and arterial blood gas analysis.

    Measured: At baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Assessment of accuracy in healthy volunteers

    Assessment of accuracy of the novel pulse oximeter sensor in healthy subjects undergoing a normobaric hypoxic challenge provoking SpO2 desaturation. SpO2 will be measured continuously over the hole procedure and SpO2 range by the novel pulse oximeter sensor and the 2 reference pulse oximeters.

    Measured: At baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OxyFrame in people with Pulse Oximeter Validation and Long Term Oxygen Therapy, run by Insel Gruppe AG, University Hospital Bern at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 10 inclusion and 27 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 27 Oct 2016. 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 Switzerland. 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?

Assessment of accuracy in patients (time frame: At baseline). 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 27 Oct 2016.
