Trial summary

High frequency nasal cannula (HFNC) provides an inspiration O2 fraction of 21-1% and it has a minimal dead space and can be well tolerated due to humidified air. Group I patients will be applied HFNC before and after bariatric surgery, Group II patients will be applied a constant O2 concentration via face mask. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Nasal High Flow on Perioperative Oxygenation in Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery

High frequency nasal cannula (HFNC) provides an inspiration O2 fraction of 21-1% and it has a minimal dead space and can be well tolerated due to humidified air. Group I patients will be applied HFNC before and after bariatric surgery, Group II patients will be applied a constant O2 concentration via face mask. Oxygen pressure, oxygen saturation, carbon dioxide, respiration frequency, forced vital capacity will be measured before and after surgery.

Read the detailed description

Morbid obese patients are prone to atelectasis and hypoxemia after bariatric surgery. High frequency nasal cannula (HFNC) provides an inspiration O2 fraction of 21-1% and it has a minimal dead space and can be well tolerated due to humidified air. It provides 5-7 cm H2O positive end expiratory pressure to the airways and may prevent atelectasis. In the preoperative room, forced vital capacity, peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2), respiratory frequency, heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), carbon dioxide, oxygen pressure and carbon dioxide partial pressure values in blood gas analysis will be recorded. We will apply HFNC in the preoperative and postoperative period to Group I patients, while applying a constant O2 concentration to Group II patients. After appliying HFNC for two hours in Group I patients and O2 via face mask in Group II patients measurements will be repeated. During surgery, similar mechanical ventilation parameters will be applied to the patients. After the operation Group I patients will be applied HFNC, while Group II patients will be applied O2 via face mask in the recovery room for two hours. Measurements will be repeated. Primary end point of the study is the association between oxygen pressure, carbon dioxide partial pressure values among preoperative before and after HFNC and O2 and postoperative times.

What is being measured

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

  1. PO2 value

    PO2 value will be measured before HFNC or face mask, after HFNC or face mask and after surgery

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. PCO2 value

    PO2 value will be measured before HFNC or face mask, after HFNC or face mask and after surgery

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oxygen therapy via HFNC and Oxygen therapy via face mask in people with Morbid Obesity, run by Istanbul University.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Cigdem A BEYOGLU (+905052278176, akyolbeyoglu@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PO2 value (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04048798, 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 7 Aug 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
