Continuous Versus Demand-Based Oxygen in Patients With Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Sponsor: Sissel Kronborg-White
Summary
The goal of this randomised clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of exertional oxygen delivery by continous versus demand-based flow systems in patients with fibrotic Interstitial lung disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease . The main questions it aim to answer: Is there a difference in lowest oxygen saturation? Is there a difference in saturation: time below \<90%, pulse rate, distance and patient preferences ? It is a cross over study, so all patients will test both methods. Participants will perform 2 6-minute walk tests with the two different oxygen delivery systems.
Official title: A Protocol for a Randomized Trial Comparing the Efficacy of Exertional Oxygen Delivery by Continuous Versus Demand-Based Flow Systems During Six-minute Walk Test in Patients With Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (OXYCODE)
