Brief summary

This study directly relates to the trial ACTRN12612000356864. As there is concern regarding the accuracy of the data collected by the specific transcutaneous probes used with that study (measuring carbon dioxide, oxygen levels and heart rate), the study is being repeated using a Sentec transcutaneous monitor. The Ethics approval number and UTN remain the same, however ANZCTR required a new trial registration number. Two new outcome measures have been added (end tidal carbon dioxide, to further assess the mechanisms behind any change in carbon dioxide, and drift corrected carbon dioxide (a function of the Sentec monitor to improve accuracy)). Oxygen therapy has been shown to increase carbon dioxide in the blood of patients with certain respiratory conditions. This study aims to find out if oxygen therapy increases carbon dioxide levels in patients with bronchiectasis or cystic fibrosis and, if so, how.

Interventions

50% oxygen administration for 30 minutes via a full-face continuous positive airway pressure mask without positive airway pressure. Followed by a 30 minute washout period.
