Evaluation of Oxygen Delivery Methods in Acute Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Exacerbation
Registration Number
NCT06561464
Lead Sponsor
Ankara Etlik City Hospital
Brief Summary

To examine the effects of oxygen therapy methods applied as indicated in COPD acute exacerbations on blood gas results and spirometric measurements.

Detailed Description

Patients requiring non-invasive ventilation will be divided into two groups: one group will receive NIMV in the form of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP). The other group will receive EzPAP® (a non-invasive positive airway pressure device). For both groups, blood gas results and hand-held spirometer parameters, including Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), and Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1), will be evaluated before and after the application.It is aimed to evaluate the effect of COPD noninvasive treatment methods on hospitalization and mortality processes.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Arterial blood gas and spirometry values will be examined before and after treatment administration to patients.Patients will receive 2-hour treatment (EzPAP and NIMV) and then measurements will be taken 30 minutes after the completion of treatment in both groups.

Patients meeting the inclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study after obtaining informed consent.

1. Before treatment, the following parameters will be assessed:

* Blood pressure (mmHg)

* Oxygen Saturation (%)

* Respiratory rate /min,

* Heart rate/min

* pH

* pCO2-mmHg

* PaO2-mmHg

* HCO3-mEq/L

* Lactate-mmol/L

* FEV1-Liter

* FVC-Liter

* - PEF-L/min

2. After treatment, the following parameters will be assessed:

* Blood pressure (mmHg)

* Oxygen Saturation (%)

* Respiratory rate /min,

* Heart rate/min

* pH

* pCO2-mmHg

* PaO2-mmHg

* HCO3-mEq/L

* Lactate-mmol/L

* FEV1-Liter

* FVC-Liter

* PEF-L/min

Evaluation of the patient's mortalite after treatment.The 30-day mortality of the patients will be evaluated.

- 30-day mortality of the patients will be evaluated.
