Standard vs Targeted Oxygen Therapy Prehospital for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The STOP-COPD trial is a randomized, patient-blinded, prehospital clinical trial designed to evaluate the effect of titrated oxygen therapy compared to standard oxygen treatment in patients with suspected acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) treated with inhaled bronchodilators. The primary objective is to determine whether a titrated oxygen strategy targeting SpO₂ 88-92% can reduce 30-day mortality compared to the current standard practice using 100% compressed oxygen as a nebulizer driver.
