NCT04072848

Brief Summary

Prospective observational cohort study of patients admitted to hospital with suspected hypercapnic respiratory failure and requiring treatment with non-invasive ventilation (NIV) as part of standard, routine management. Contemporaneous blood gas samples will be obtained via arterial, capillary, and venous methods. The venous samples will undergo mathematical arterialisation via the v-TAC system. In line with standard medical care, arterial samples will be obtained before starting NIV and at two set points afterwards (day 1 post-NIV, and pre-discharge). Pre-existing clinical thresholds will be used to assess the reliability of v-TAC against ABG, the existing gold standard and will conduct a retrospective model of decision-making once the blood sampling component of the study is concluded.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in blood carbon dioxide level (PaCO2)

    Change in PaCO2 between the pre-NIV (non-invasive ventilation) and day 1 NIV samples for ABG (arterial blood gas) versus v-TAC (arterialised venous blood gas)

    Between day 0 and day 1

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Change in PaCO2 between ABG versus v-TAC versus Capillary Blood Gas (CBG) versus Venous Blood Gas (VBG)

    Between day 0 and day 1

  • Change in PaCO2 between ABG versus v-TAC versus Capillary Blood Gas (CBG) versus Venous Blood Gas (VBG)

    Between day 0 and through to study completion, up to 3 days

  • Relative difficult in sampling

    Between day 0 and through to study completion, up to 3 days

  • Patient experience

    Between day 0 and through to study completion, up to 3 days

  • Patient preference

    Between day 0 and through to study completion, up to 3 days

Eligibility Criteria
