What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating a new oxygen delivery method called closed-loop oxygen control during high flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNO) for adults with acute respiratory failure in emergency room settings. HFNO supports breathing by delivering humidified oxygen through a nasal interface, but current oxygen levels are manually adjusted, often leading to oxygen saturation levels outside the desired range. The study aims to see if automated oxygen control improves time spent within the target oxygen saturation range compared to manual adjustment. The trial compares two 6-hour periods of oxygen delivery in a randomized crossover design. In one period, oxygen levels (FiO2) are automatically adjusted by a closed-loop controller based on continuous oxygen saturation (SpO2) monitoring, maintaining target SpO2 levels set by clinicians. In the other period, oxygen is manually adjusted by clinicians based on SpO2 readings. This device-based approach is designed to quickly respond to changes in oxygen needs and avoid excessive oxygen exposure. Participants admitted to the emergency room who require HFNO with FiO2 of at least 30% will be involved. Researchers will monitor oxygen saturation continuously and record the percentage of time spent within the optimal SpO2 range over 6 hours. Secondary measures include time with SpO2 below or above target ranges, oxygen usage, and event counts of oxygen desaturation. Safety monitoring includes quality of SpO2 signals and clinical status. The study will assess whether automated control can improve oxygen management during critical care treatment.

Screening

Duration - 2 to 4 weeks

Participants are screened for eligibility to participate in the trial.

Treatment

Duration - Two 6-hour treatment periods

Participants receive two 6-hour periods of oxygen therapy using different devices to maintain target oxygen saturation. One period uses a closed-loop FiO2 controller that automatically adjusts oxygen levels, and the other uses conventional manual titration by clinicians.
