Abstract Objectives For many with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), arterial
oxygen saturation while receiving Long-Term Oxygen Therapy (LTOT) falls below an …

Oxygen therapy can be life-saving for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD) and is the backbone of any acute COPD treatment strategy. Although largely …

Purpose It is a challenge to control oxygen saturation (SpO2) in patients with exacerbations
of COPD during admission. We tested a newly developed closed-loop system, O2matic® …

Objective. Supplemental oxygen treatment of patients on mechanical ventilation is crucial in
maintaining the patients' oxygen levels in the normal range. The purpose of this study was to …

BACKGROUND: One century after the introduction of the oxygen flow meter into clinical
practice, we have developed a device, FreeO2, that automatically titrates the oxygen flow …

Objective. To develop an instrument to help prevent pulmonaryO 2 toxicity, a syndrome that
manifests itself in adultintensive care patients. Methods. We designed, built, and tested …

BACKGROUND: The O2 Flow Regulator (Dima, Bologna, Italy) is a new automated oxygen
regulator that titrates the oxygen flow based on a pulse-oximetry signal to maintain a target …

STUDY OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine if an oxygen prescription
based on continuous oximetry monitoring, would result in an increased percentage of time …

Background: Addition of an oxygen concentrator into a control loop furthers previous work in
autonomous control of oxygenation. Software integrates concentrator and ventilator function …

Abstract Background and Objective Oxygen therapy has become a standard care for the
treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other hypoxemic …
