Influence of FreeO2 on Percentage of Time Within Oxygen Saturation Target Using Noninvasive Ventilation (NIV) and Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) for Patients Admitted for AECOPD or Bariatric Surgery

Not Applicable
Conditions
Surgery
COPD Exacerbation
Oxygen Toxicity
Abdominal Obesity
Registration Number
NCT04136717
Lead Sponsor
François Lellouche
Brief Summary

The main objective is to evaluate the FreeO2 device combined with noninvasive respiratory support technique for COPD patients and postoperative bariatric surgery patients.

The main hypothesis is that FreeO2 device for oxygen therapy associated with NIV or nasal high flow oxygen therapy (NHFOT) allows to reach better oxygenation and avoid hypoxemia and hyperoxia.

Detailed Description

Bariatric surgery patients:

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the time spent in the SpO2 target (+/- 2% SpO2 target) and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) values on patients with morbid obesity after bariatric surgery.

COPD patients:

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the time spent in the SpO2 target (+/- 2% SpO2 target) and PCO2 values on patients with exacerbation of COPD (hypercapnic patients) with different ventilatory supports (NIV and NHFOT) associated with FreeO2.
