Summary

This trial looks at how changes in oxygen levels affect the heart's electrical activity in people with and without oxygen needs.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who can consent and have a chronic respiratory condition with oxygen saturation below 95% when not using supplemental oxygen. It's not for those with severe obesity, recent heart issues, uncontrolled medical conditions like angina or high blood pressure, cancer, or active major depression.
What is being tested?
The study is looking at how varying oxygen levels during the night affect heart electrical activity in people with chronic lung problems who do and don't use nighttime oxygen.
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial involves nocturnal oxygen therapy which typically has minimal side effects, potential risks may include dry or bloody nose, morning headaches, and discomfort from wearing the mask.
