Summary

This study aims to develop an algorithm to mitigate the noise generated by the high-flow nasal oxygen system for tracheal sound monitoring in deeply sedated patients.

Detailed description

During deep sedation without intubation, anesthesia respiratory care and monitoring are of utmost importance. Anesthesia can lead to adverse respiratory effects, increasing the risk of airway obstruction and respiratory depression. High-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) systems are often used to mitigate these risks. Monitoring tracheal breathing sounds directly using amplification provides better detection accuracy. However, traditional auscultation instruments have limitations, including noise interference and lack of visual functionality. The Airmod Smart Respiratory Monitoring System, with FDA approval in the United States and Taiwan, addresses these issues. It offers respiratory sound recording, noise filtering, event logging, and respiratory rate analysis. Currently, no digital stethoscope on the market can filter out HFNO noise. Therefore, the current study is to develop an algorithm to mitigate the noise generated by the high-flow nasal oxygen system for tracheal sound monitoring in deeply sedated patients.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	High flow nasal oxygen fist	Patients in the two study group first underwent a 10-minute session of high-flow nasal oxygen (50 L/min) followed by the utilization of the standard low-flow nasal oxygen (4 L/min) or underwent a 10-minute session of standard low-flow nasal oxygen (4 L/min) followed by the utilization of the high-flow nasal oxygen (50 L/min).
DEVICE	High flow nasal oxygen later	Patient in this group underwent a 10-minute session of standard low-flow nasal oxygen (4 L/min) followed by the utilization of the high-flow nasal oxygen (50 L/min)
