Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Can the LeVe CPAP Flow Generator be used safely without inducing hypoxia or carbon dioxide retention? Oxygen saturations will be monitored continuously with a pulse oximeter. End tidal Carbon dioxide levels will be measured continuously ETCO2 sensor. These figures will be recorded anonymously. Oxygen Saturations measured as the flow and pressure of gases in the system during trial use.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Is the LeVe CPAP Flow Generator well tolerated by users? The participant will be given a separate questionnaire to fill out on the user tolerability of using the LeVe CPAP Flow Generator. This will determine 1. Tolerability of using the system 2. Acceptability of using the system
