Tracheal Stenosis
Conditions
Keywords
Tracheal stenosis, Hydrogen generator, Hydrogen-oxygen, Dyspnea.
Brief summary
Investigators aim to study the effectiveness and safety of inhaling hydrogen-oxygen which produced by a hydrogen generator with nebulizer to decreases inspiratory effort for the patients with tracheal stenosis.
Interventions
The patients mainly used the hydrogen generator with nebulizer for inhalation of hydrogen-oxygen mixed gas.
The patients mainly used medical molecular sieve oxygen-making machine for oxygen inhalation.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in sRMSdi/para/sc, RMSdi, Pdi& MIP from baseline after inhalation by bench study. | Baseline, 10min, 20min, 30min, 40min, 50min, 90min and 150min | sRMSdi/para/sc: root-mean-square of diaphragm/parasternal/sternocleidomastoid surface electromyography; RMSdi: root-mean-square of diaphragm electromyography; Pdi: Transdiaphragmatic pressure; MIP:maximal inspiratory pressure. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in symptom of dyspnea from baseline after inhalation. | Baseline, 10min, 20min, 30min, 40min, 50min, 90min and 150min | Changes in comfort with each gas mixture were evaluated by a simple questionnaire |
| Change in signs(BR, HR, BP, el) from baseline after inhalation | Baseline, 10min, 20min, 30min, 40min, 50min, 90min and 150min | Change in signs include breath rate, heart rate, blood pressure,Three Depression Sign and so on. |
| Change in PaO2, PaCO2, PH& HCO3- after inhalation | Baseline and 150min | Change in Arterial blood gases. |
| Change in Borg score for dyspnea after inhalation. | Baseline, 10min, 20min, 30min, 40min, 50min, 90min and 150min | — |
| Change in impulse oscillometry variables(R5,R20,X5,AX,RF) as change from baseline when inhaling. | Baseline and inhaling | R5 - Resistance at 5Hz, R20 - Resistance at 20Hz, X5 - Reactance at 5Hz, RF - Frequency of resonance, AX - Area under reactance curve |
| Change in cough waves from baseline when inhaling | Baseline, Inhaling. | Cough waves will be recorded by a voice recorder. |
| Grades of airway stenosis by bronchoscopy | baseline | — |
| FEV1 & FVC | Baseline | Forced expiratory volume in one second & Forced vital capacity. |
