Effect of Supplemental Oxygen on Maximal Oxygen Consumption in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
- Conditions
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
- Registration Number
- NCT01294033
- Lead Sponsor
- Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center
- Brief Summary
Maximal consumption of oxygen (VO2max) during exercise is used in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to stratify perioperative risk. However, the impact of supplemental oxygen to prevent hypoxemia during exercise on maximal oxygen consumption and other ventilatory parameters during maximal exercise in the resting normoxic Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease population is poorly defined. The investigators performed a randomized controlled trial in patients with COPD who underwent cardiopulmonary exercise tests on room air and supplemental oxygen. The investigators compared maximal oxygen consumption and other ventilatory parameters in each individual subject under the two conditions.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Maximal oxygen consumption Outcomes are measured at time of study visit when patient reaches maximal exercise during cardiopulmonary exercise test. Measurements occur at time of test within 30 minutes of exercise. This is not a longitudinal study measuring outcomes over time.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Maximum minute ventilation Outcomes are measured at time of study visit when patient reaches maximal exercise during cardiopulmonary exercise test. Measurements occur at time of test within 30 minutes of exercise. This is not a longitudinal study measuring outcomes over time. Exercise time Outcomes are measured at time of study visit when patient reaches maximal exercise during cardiopulmonary exercise test. Measurements occur at time of test within 30 minutes of exercise. This is not a longitudinal study measuring outcomes over time. Maximum watts achieved Outcomes are measured at time of study visit when patient reaches maximal exercise during cardiopulmonary exercise test. Measurements occur at time of test within 30 minutes of exercise. This is not a longitudinal study measuring outcomes over time. Minute ventilation - Carbon dioxide production slope Outcomes are measured at time of study visit when patient reaches maximal exercise during cardiopulmonary exercise test. Measurements occur at time of test within 30 minutes of exercise. This is not a longitudinal study measuring outcomes over time. Oxygen saturation Outcomes are measured at time of study visit when patient reaches maximal exercise during cardiopulmonary exercise test. Measurements occur at time of test within 30 minutes of exercise. This is not a longitudinal study measuring outcomes over time.
