High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy(HFNC) has proved no significant difference compared with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) in preventing postextubation respiratory failure and reintubation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.However, the efficacy of early postextubation sequential HFNC in COPD patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure is inconclusive.
This study compares a volume targeted pressure support non-invasive ventilation with an automatic PEP regulation (AVAPS-AE mode) to a pressure support non-invasive ventilation (S/T mode) in patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure with acidosis. This study focuses on patients at risk of obstructive apneas or obesity-hypoventilation syndrom (BMI≥30 kg/m²). Half of participants (33 patients) will receive non invasive ventilation with AVAPS-AE mode, the other half will receive non-invasive ventilation with S/T mode.
Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is a condition that occurs in small percentage of obese people that causes high carbon dioxide and low oxygen levels in the blood. OHS is associated with respiratory failure, pulmonary hypertension, and death. The cause of OHS is unclear. Since not all obese people develop OHS, it is believed that hormone imbalances can contribute to the breathing problem. Some diets can change the body's hormones. For example, low-carbohydrate, high fat "ketogenic" diets (KD) may decrease insulin and glucose levels and increase sensitivity to other hormones. The investigators hypothesize that a KD will improve breathing in OHS patients, even in the absence of weight loss.
Prospective observational cohort study of patients admitted to hospital with suspected hypercapnic respiratory failure and requiring treatment with non-invasive ventilation (NIV) as part of standard, routine management. Contemporaneous blood gas samples will be obtained via arterial, capillary, and venous methods. The venous samples will undergo mathematical arterialisation via the v-TAC system. In line with standard medical care, arterial samples will be obtained before starting NIV and at two set points afterwards (day 1 post-NIV, and pre-discharge). Pre-existing clinical thresholds will be used to assess the reliability of v-TAC against ABG, the existing gold standard and will conduct a retrospective model of decision-making once the blood sampling component of the study is concluded.
The study will be performed as a randomized controlled non-inferiority trial. HFA has been increasingly used in the last years to treat hypoxic respiratory failure (i.e. type I failure), and numerous studies have shown its efficiency in this indication. Despite this good evidence for HFA in hypoxic respiratory failure, it has only reluctantly been used for hypercapnic respiratory failure. HFA has been shown to generate PEEP, despite not being a closed system, and to improve CO2 clearance by flushing anatomical dead space. It might also help to reduce inspiratory resistance and facilitate secretion clearance from humidified gas. A study on COPD patients showed an increase in breathing pressure amplitude and mean pressure, as well as tidal volume, with a trend towards reduction of carbon dioxide partial pressure. Intervention consists of HFA using standard equipment at the department. A gas flow of 60 litres per minute and a FiO2 as clinically feasible will be used. Therapy will be continued until a pCO2-level of 50 mmHg or less is reached, or therapy has to be aborted because of lack of tolerance by the patient or indication for intubation. Control consists of non-invasive continuous positive airway pressure ventilation support using a tight mask and standard respirator equipment of the Department of Emergency Medicine. A positive airway pressure of 3,67 mmHg and a FiO2 as clinically feasible will be used. Therapy will be continued until a pCO2-level of 50 mmHg or less is reached, or therapy has to be aborted because of lack of tolerance by the patient or indication for intubation.
High flow nasal therapy (HFNT) has not been well evaluated for treating hypercapnia The purpose of this study is to determine whether high flow nasal therapy (HFNT) can decrease hypercapnia and improve respiratory distress parameters in Emergency Department patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure related to cardiogenic pulmonary edema and to compare its efficacy to that of non invasive ventilation.
To evaluate the polysomnographic performance of an automatic ventilatory mode compared with the gold standard (manual polysomnographic titration) to adjust chronic non-invasive ventilation by means of a randomized cross-over study.
this study evaluates high flow oxygen therapy in addition to non invasive ventilation (NIV) to treat hypercapnic respiratory failure. Between sessions of NIV, half of participants will have high flow nasal cannula while the others will have standard low flow oxygen therapy.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a worldwide common disease with high morbidity and mortality and leads to heavy social and economic burden. Health management of stable COPD patients has been suggested to be essential for delaying diseases progress, reducing acute exacerbation events and improving patient quality of life. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a widely used treatment in COPD patients. There were studies shown that NIV could improve ventilation, blood gases etc., and several clinical trials have shown improvements in survival, exercise capacity, quality of life and so on. Compliance to NIV and optimal parameter setting are important factors that will affect the effect of the use of NIV, thus NIV usage monitoring might also be a crucial element in the health management of COPD patients. Many studies have been designed to study the effect of tele-monitoring program on the management of COPD patients. However, almost none of these studies were designed for specific population, and little is known about the effect of such program on the management of patients with NIV treatment.
