Study Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the exercise capacity between high SpO2 (Minimum SpO2 94-96%) value during pulmonary rehabilitation and low SpO2 (Minimum SpO2 84-86%) value during pulmonary rehabilitation for the patients with chronic respiratory failure receiving long-term oxygen therapy.

Detailed Description

In patients with chronic respiratory failure, pulmonary rehabilitation is recognized as an evidence-based treatment in improving exercise capacity, muscle strength, dyspnea, and quality of life. However, optimal SpO2 value during pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic respiratory failure receiving long-term oxygen therapy is unclear.

The present study is randomized to compare the effect of exercise capacity between high SpO2 (Minimum SpO2 94-96%) value during pulmonary rehabilitation and low SpO2 (Minimum SpO2 84-86%) value during pulmonary rehabilitation for the patients with chronic respiratory failure receiving long-term oxygen therapy.

Inclusion Criteria

  • •Subjects with chronic respiratory failure receiving long-term oxygen therapy for more than 3 months.

Exclusion Criteria

  • •Subjects with severe cardiovascular disease, liver disease, neurological disease, and renal failure.
  • •Subjects with a history of hospitalization for pneumonia or exacerbation of respiratory failure within the last month.

Arms & Interventions

High SpO2 group

Active Comparator

In this group, patients have undergone 4 weeks of pulmonary rehabilitation under the HFNC (FIO2 value that the minimum SpO2 value during pulmonary rehabilitation is 94-96%, and a flow of 10 L/min).

Intervention: High-flow nasal cannula (Other)

Low SpO2 group

Active Comparator

In this group, patients have undergone 4 weeks of pulmonary rehabilitation under the HFNC (FIO2 value that the minimum SpO2 value during pulmonary rehabilitation is 84-86%, and a flow of 10 L/min).

Intervention: Low SpO2 (Other)

Outcomes
