Efficacy of Oxygen Therapy Delivered by Systems Using Oxygen-Saving Valves in COPD Patients

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: LUNG DISEASES, OBSTRUCTIVE
• Interventions: Device: pulse oxygen supplementation devices; Device: continuous oxygen

• Registration Number: NCT01180803
• Lead Sponsor: Association Nationale pour les Traitements A Domicile, les Innovations et la Recherche

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of oxygen therapy delivered by systems using oxygen-saving valves or not (continuous oxygen). We aim to determine if systems using oxygen-saving valves are equally effective as continuous oxygen delivery systems in reducing exercise-induced hypoxemia in patients with COPD.
