Trial summary

In many patients, respiratory Sars-Cov2 infection causes arterial hypoxemia, which remains without signs of verbalized respiratory distress, up to a point. This phenomenon, called "happy" or "silent" hypoxemia, has a plural pathophysiological basis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Oxygen Hemoglobin Saturation in COVID Patients: Comparison of Arterial Gasometry and Pulse Oximetry

In many patients, respiratory Sars-Cov2 infection causes arterial hypoxemia, which remains without signs of verbalized respiratory distress, up to a point. This phenomenon, called "happy" or "silent" hypoxemia, has a plural pathophysiological basis. Hypoxemia has been shown to be predictively associated with admission to the ICU. Therefore, the question of constant monitoring of oxygenation, practiced on a large scale, at home, in asymptomatic patients or contact cases, arises. A large number of portable pulse oximeter are currently freely available on the market; however, their clinical validation remains sometimes doubtful, or even absent from FDA standards.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of SpO2 values provided by portable pulse oximeter in COVID patients, in comparison with the reference method. The study will be conducted on a population of adult patients with COVID, hospitalized in the ICU, for whom gasometry sampling is already scheduled in the usual management.

Read the detailed description

The constant monitoring of saturation by the pulse oximeter, the result of three centuries of technological progress, has introduced a true revolution in medical management that now relies on this vital parameter. In many patients, Sars-Cov2 respiratory infection causes arterial hypoxemia, which remains without signs of verbalized respiratory distress, up to a certain point. This phenomenon, called "happy" or "silent" hypoxemia, has a plural pathophysiological basis. Hypoxemia has been shown to be predictively associated with admission to the ICU. Therefore, the question of constant monitoring of oxygenation, practiced on a large scale, at home, in asymptomatic patients or contact cases, arises.

Despite its many advantages (non-invasive, kinetic), the pulse oximeter can be misused in several pathophysiological situations. The reference method for measuring hemoglobin oxygen saturation remains arterial gasometry.

However, a large number of portable pulse oximeter are currently freely available on the market; however, their clinical validation is sometimes questionable or even absent from FDA standards.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of SpO2 values provided by portable pulse oximeter in COVID patients, in comparison with the reference method (arterial gasometry). The study will be conducted on a population of adult patients with COVID, hospitalized in the ICU, for whom gasometry sampling is already scheduled in the usual management.

Daily at 6am, during the systematic monitoring, arterial gasometry will be taken (as part of routine care) by the nurse or medical staff on duty. Synchronous measurement of Sp02 given by three portable pulse oximeter (1 measurement point per device, therefore 3 measurements/patient/day for a minimum of 3 days).

What participants receive

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

  • Measurement of oxygen saturationOther

    Measurement of oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry once a day, at 6 a.m., for a minimum of 3 days, thanks to three pulse oximeters (1 measurement point per device/day), in parallel with a synchronous sampling, programmed as part of the usual care, of arterial gasometry.

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the accuracy of SpO2 value provided by portable pulse oximeter in COVID patients compared with the reference method.

    Measurement of oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry once a day, at 6 a.m., for a minimum of 3 days, using three pulse oximeters (1 measurement point per device/day), in parallel with a synchronous, programmed arterial gasometry sampling Evaluation according to the standards of the SFBC (French Society of Clinical Biology) for the comparison of methods: minimum 40 points per apparatus, evenly distributed over the pathophysiological range of the saturations explored (9, 10): 60-100%.

    Measured: once a day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Identification of pathophysiological or analytical biases specific to COVID patients.

    Data analysis will allow to identify potential biases in the measurement of oxygen saturation in COVID patients

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 7 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Measurement of oxygen saturation in people with Hypoxemia and Covid-19, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 8 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2022. 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 France. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

To evaluate the accuracy of SpO2 value provided by portable pulse oximeter in COVID patients compared with the reference method. (time frame: once a day). 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 10 May 2022.
