The Effect of Hyperoxia on Cardiac Output

Completed
Conditions
Hyperoxia
Cardiac Output, Low
Registration Number
NCT03930979
Lead Sponsor
Medical Centre Leeuwarden
Brief Summary

Rational: Preoxygenation is a standard procedure before (deep) sedation in the ED. However, there is literature suggesting that too much oxygen can be harmful. One potential detrimental effect is a decrease in cardiac output due to coronary vasoconstriction. So far, it is unknown if this effect is rate dependent and if it also occurs after only a short period of hyperoxia, as patients experience during procedural sedation pre-oxygenation.

Objective: To investigate if hyperoxia has a negative effect on Cardiac index (CI) in patients undergoing procedural sedation in the ED.

Detailed Description

Methods: In patients needing sedation for a painful condition, non-invasive measurements of CI, stroke volume and total peripheral resistance are performed using the Clearsight non-invasive cardiac output monitoring system.. Measurements will be taken at baseline, after 1,2 and 5 minutes of 15L O2/min, and then after another 2 and 5 minutes of flush rate oxygen and during the subsequent sedation.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The change in cardiac output (L/min) after respectively 15L/min and flush rate preoxygenation in respect to baselineat baseline, at 1,2,5 (15L),7 and 10 minutes (flush o2)

Cardiac output is measured by Clearsight non invasive hemodynamic monitoring system; 3 baseline measurements are done separated by one minute intervals; subsequently 15L/min O2 is started. After 1,2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated. After 5 minutes, flush rate O2 is started. After 2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The change in heart rate (BPM) after respectively 15L/min and flush rate preoxygenation in respect to baselineat baseline, at 1,2,5, (15L o2) and 7, 10 minutes (flush o2)

3 baseline measurements are done separated by one minute intervals; subsequently 15L/min O2 is started. After 1,2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated. After 5 minutes, flush rate O2 is started. After 2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated.

the change in systolic blood pressure (mmHg) after respectively 15L/min and flush rate preoxygenation in respect to baselineat baseline, at 1,2,5 (15L o2) and 7, 10 minutes (flush o2)

Systolic blood pressure is measured by Clearsight non invasive hemodynamic monitoring system; 3 baseline measurements are done separated by one minute intervals; subsequently 15L/min O2 is started. After 1,2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated. After 5 minutes, flush rate O2 is started. After 2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated.

The change in stroke volume (ml) after respectively 15L/min and flush rate preoxygenation in respect to baselineat baseline, at 1,2,5 (15L o2) and 7, 10 minutes (flush o2)

Stroke volume is measured by Clearsight non invasive hemodynamic monitoring system; 3 baseline measurements are done separated by one minute intervals; subsequently 15L/min O2 is started. After 1,2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated. After 5 minutes, flush rate O2 is started. After 2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated.

the change in total peripheral vascular resistance after respectively 15L/min and flush rate preoxygenation in respect to baselineat baseline, at 1,2,5 (15L o2) and 7,10 minutes (flush o2)

Peripheral vascular resistance is measured by Clearsight non invasive hemodynamic monitoring system; 3 baseline measurements are done separated by one minute intervals; subsequently 15L/min O2 is started. After 1,2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated. After 5 minutes, flush rate O2 is started. After 2 and 5 minutes, measurements are repeated.

The relation of the difference in CI with the occurrence of of haemodynamic sedation eventsat baseline, at 1,2,5 (15L o2) ,7 and 10 minutes (flush o2)

In case of apnea \> 20 sec, low SBP \<90 mmHg or \>20% decrease in comparison to baseline, desaturation \<92%, assess relation to change in cardiac output (L/min) during preoxygenation
