Conduct of Nasal High Flow Oxygen in Acute Respiratory Failure

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Although many studies have investigated the clinical benefits of nasal high flow during acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, there is no data (and even less so recommendations) on how to best conduct this technique, including its initiation and its weaning periods. Investigators will assess in a multicenter, observational study, the way clinicians use nasal high flow therapy in patients with acute respiratory failure in order to try identify one or more strategies that may be then compared in an interventional study.

Clinical Trial Description

Nasal high flow oxygen therapy is increasingly used as a first-line treatment for hypoxemic acute respiratory failure, because of its remarkable tolerance (in comparison with NIV) and its physiological effects (nasopharyngeal dead space washout, positive end-expiratory pressure effect with possible alveolar recruitment, better matching with the patient's inspiratory flow, more reliable and adjustable FiO2); that together contribute to a reduction in respiratory workload and better oxygenation.

Although many studies have investigated the clinical benefits of nasal high flow during acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, there are no data (and even less recommendations) on how to best conduct this technique, including its initiation and its weaning periods.

Because different approaches exist among clinicians, investigators believe that a multicenter observational study that would collect data regarding the different ways high flow is conducted in patients with acute respiratory failure is necessary before performing an interventional study that would test and compare different strategies in order to answer the question: what are the best strategies (in terms of flow and FiO2 settings) to initiate and to wean high-flow oxygen therapy in patients with acute respiratory failure?

Investigators will assess in a multicenter, observational study, the way clinicians use nasal high flow therapy in patients with acute respiratory failure in order to try identify one or more strategies that may be then compared in an interventional study. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
