Completed
Conditions
Pre-oxygenation in Term Pregnant Women
Registration Number
NCT04229745
Lead Sponsor
SABA AL-SULTTAN
Brief Summary

Clinical Trial of Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE) Oxygen in Women having Planned Caesarean Delivery. Cohort study investigating the efficacy of THRIVE pre-oxygenation using pre-determined number of vital capacity breaths and comparing the efficacy to face mask pre-oxygenation. Aimed to recruit ASA 1-2 term pregnant women having elective caesarean section.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of vital capacity breaths required using THRIVE to pre-oxygenate 90% of parturients to an end tidal oxygen concentration of ≥90% (EN90). End tidal oxygen concentration >= 0.98 months study period

measure end tidal oxygen concentration through breathing system attached to anaesthetic machine

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
changes in fetal wellbeing during pre-oxygenation time8 months study period

using fetal cardiotocography

comfort score of THRIVE8 months study period

using 4-point Likert scale (1 being very uncomfortable- 4 comfortable)

EN90 using THRIVE with mouth open versus mouth closed8 months study period

to measure any difference in end tidal oxygen concentration after using THRIVE mouth closed versus THRIVE mouth open
