Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: 1
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who show arterial oxygen desaturation to effort.
|
Device: Oxygen conserving devices
Three 6MWT test will be performed at random with conventional oxygen continuous-flow,by Oxymizer Pendant and demand valve system. The percentage of patients correcting their desaturation and patients' acceptance of every method will be determinated.
Other Name: Oxygen conserving devices in COPD. |
Experimental: 2
Patients with interstitial lung disease who show arterial oxygen desaturation to effort
|
Device: Oxygen conserving devices
Three 6MWT test will be performed at random with conventional oxygen continuous-flow,by Oxymizer Pendant and demand valve system. The percentage of patients correcting their desaturation and patients' acceptance of every method will be determinated
Other Name: Oxygen conserving devices in interstitial lung disease. |
- To determine the efficacy of correcting desaturation during effort and the acceptance of two different oxygen conserving devices during deambulation,one system with reservoir an another one with oxygen demand valve. [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
