High Flow Nasal Oxygen for Children With Cystic Fibrosis Presenting With

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

Respiratory exacerbations are frequent among cystic fibrosis patients and supplemental oxygen is usually required. We will compare a new high flow nasal cannula system with Venturi masks for oxygen supplementation to patients with CF hospitalized for respiratory exacerbation.

Clinical Trial Description

Introduction: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease that leads to chronic lung infections and recurrent respiratory exacerbations. Supplemental oxygen is usually required during respiratory exacerbations. Recently, a new high flow nasal cannula system that provides flows up to 40l/min at 100% humidification was developed and tested in neonates and children, providing greater comfort to the patient. The main hypothesis of the study is that this method has advantages for oxygen supplementation to patients with CF hospitalized for respiratory exacerbation. Methods: 40 patients with CF aged 6 to 18 years will be randomized to receive supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula or Venturi masks during hospitalization for respiratory exacerbation. Main outcomes will be the duration of hospitalization and oxygen supplementation, viscosity and transportability of sputum and personal impressions of patients regarding the method of oxygen administration (questionnaire). Spirometry and venous blood gas analysis will be performed after the second hospital day, and sputum samples will be obtained in the first and third day of hospitalization. Clinical treatment (antibiotics, etc) will be defined by the medical team of the institution, not involved in the study. Expected Results: The use of high flow nasal cannula will result in significantly less time of supplemental oxygen, with increased comfort for patients, without significant differences in the levels of PaCO2. Sputum samples obtained from the patients treated with the high flow nasal cannula will have lower viscosity and higher transportability as compared to those obtained from patients treated with Venturi mask. ;

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.
