Respiratory Insufficiency, Respiratory Failure
Conditions
Brief summary
The objective of this study (Part II) will be to compare the performance of the Trilogy device and a conventional ventilator (participant's current device). Both devices will be set to the participants' current mode and prescription settings.
Detailed description
A. Primary Hypothesis and end-point In patients with respiratory insufficiency, when compared to conventional ventilators, the Trilogy device achieves comparable level of gas exchange (measured as partial pressure of CO2 in arterial or venous blood)and SpO2 levels during various modes of ventilation. B. Secondary Hypothesis and end-points In patients with respiratory insufficiency, when compared to conventional ventilators, the Trilogy device achieves comparable breathing pattern (tidal volume, respiratory rate, minute ventilation), hemodynamics (heart rate), and subjective measures of breathing comfort (measured by modified Borg dyspnea scale).
Interventions
Exposure for one hour on the Trilogy ventilator
Exposure to participants current ventilator

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Comparable Level of Gas Exchange (Measured as Partial Pressure of CO2 in Arterial or Venous Blood). | After one hour of ventilator use | Blood gas was obtained for this study one hour after use of each device. |
| Comparable Level of Gas Exchange SpO2 Levels During Various Modes of Ventilation. | After one hour of ventilator use | Pulse Oximetry was measured after one hour of use of each ventilator. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Tidal Volume | One hour during ventilator use. | Tidal volume is the amount of air that moves in or out of the lungs with each respiratory cycle. It measures around 500 mL in an average healthy adult male and approximately 400 mL in a healthy female. Average tidal volume was compare after a hour of use of each device. |
| Minute Ventilation | One hour during ventilator use. | Minute ventilation is the volume of gas inhaled or exhaled from a person's lungs per minute. This was measured after one hour of use of each device. |
| Hemodynamics (Heart Rate) | One hour during ventilator use. | Number of beats per minute. Measured after one hour of use of each device. |

Outcome results
Comparable Level of Gas Exchange (Measured as Partial Pressure of CO2 in Arterial or Venous Blood).
Blood gas was obtained for this study one hour after use of each device.
Time frame: After one hour of ventilator use
Population: Only 10 out of 11 total participants' data were used for blood gases due to one participant's venous line occluding.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trilogy | Comparable Level of Gas Exchange (Measured as Partial Pressure of CO2 in Arterial or Venous Blood). | 42 mm Hg | Standard Deviation 14 |
| Standard of Care | Comparable Level of Gas Exchange (Measured as Partial Pressure of CO2 in Arterial or Venous Blood). | 43 mm Hg | Standard Deviation 14 |
Comparable Level of Gas Exchange SpO2 Levels During Various Modes of Ventilation.
Pulse Oximetry was measured after one hour of use of each ventilator.
Time frame: After one hour of ventilator use
Population: Only 10 out of the 11 total participants' data were used for SpO2 due to missing data. Only 8 out of the 11 total participants data were used for SpO2 Standard of care analysis due to missing data.
