Validation and Characterization of Signal Decrease on an Oximeter in COPD (They Have Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) Patients During Deep Inhalation ( (OXYMETRE)

Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain

Status: Completed

Conditions: Copd; Pulmonary Disease

Treatments: Other: Measurements of oxygen saturation and finger pressure during deep inspiration

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT03966196

Details and patient eligibility

About

The objective is to verify that there is a decrease in the pulsed oxygen saturation with the digital sensor. That is, the drop in oxygen saturation in COPD patients during inhalation is real and not due to an artifact of the measuring tool, because oximeters need a quality pulsatile signal to properly measure oxygen saturation

Enrollment: 12 patients
