Summary

There is a high risk of transmission of COVID-19 to healthcare workers. In a recent cohort, 29% of the patients hospitalized were healthcare workers. Among the WHO's primary strategic objectives for the response to COVID-19, the first was to limit human-to-human transmission, including reducing secondary infections among close contacts and health care workers. Automated oxygen titration, weaning and monitoring (FreeO2 device) may be a solution to reduce the number of interventions of healthcare workers related to oxygen therapy, to reduce complications related to oxygen and to improve monitoring.

Conditions

Interventions

TypeNameDescription
OTHERStandard administration of oxygen flowThe investigator recommended SpO2 target of 90-94%. The investigator will recommend that low/high SpO2 alarms be set at 88% and 96% if continuous oximetry is used. In this group the SpO2 was recorded any time with FreeO2 device - recording mode
DEVICEAutomated oxygen administration - FreeO2In this group, oxygen administration will be delivered with FreeO2 (automated oxygen titration) with SpO2 target set at 92% (to maintain oxygenation in the recommended SpO2 target: 90-94%)
