Filter by:The study aims to predict the failure of High-flow Nasal Cannula oxygenation therapy by ultrasound evaluation of diaphragm and intercostal muscle contraction during the first 24 hours.
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of conventional oxygen therapy oxygen and high-flow nasal cannula therapy on oxygen saturation (SpO2), measuring number of SpO2 drop >4% of base line oxygen saturation (o2 desaturation index), length of the ICU stay, and the need of use supplemental continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) support in any of the study groups in the postoperative ICU setting.
Patients at high risk of post-operative pulmonary complications (PPC) will be screened out from gynecological tumor patients undergoing surgical treatment, and randomly assigned into the HFNC group and control group, which uses conventional nasal cannula oxygen therapy. The primary outcome is the incidence of PPC, including postoperative hypoxemia, atelectasis, pneumonia, etc. Secondary outcomes are the improvement of postoperative oxygenation, antibiotic use, length of hospital stay, adverse events related to oxygen therapy, etc.
High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is used in interventional procedures to prevent hypoxia during sedation. In patients with a patent airway, HFNC reduces dead space ventilation as well. It is unknown if dead space ventilation is also reduced by HFNC in an EndoBroncheal UltraSound procedure, in which the airway is partially blocked by the endoscope. Especially in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) the partial blocking of the airway may reduce ventilation. If HFNC is able to reduce dead space during an EBUS-procedure, it may facilitate CO2 clearance, which may lead to a reduction in work of breathing. This study aims to investigate if HFNC reduces dead space ventilation in patients undergoing an EBUS-procedure and if this is flow-dependent. A randomized, double-blinded, cross-over study is designed.
In patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), High Flow Nasal Therapy (HFNT) improves oxygenation, tolerance, and decreases work of breathing as compared to standard oxygen therapy by facemask. The hypothesis is that this flow challenge (ROX index variation from 30 to 60L/min) could be used as a test for assessing changes in lung aeration, analyzed by the variation in end expiratory lung volume (ΔEELV), in patients treated with HFNC. It may allow to personalize the flow settings during HFNC. In this sense, an increase in EELV will be observed with higher flows in responders and, therefore, these participants may benefit from increasing the flow. In contrast, to increase the flow in non-responders (no significant increase in EELV with higher flows) increase the risk of patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI).
The purpose of this study is to compare the exercise capacity between high SpO2 (Minimum SpO2 94-96%) value during pulmonary rehabilitation and low SpO2 (Minimum SpO2 84-86%) value during pulmonary rehabilitation for the patients with chronic respiratory failure receiving long-term oxygen therapy.
Although non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) shows the good curative effect of treating the patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD), some patients do not tolerate NPPV or do not benefit from it. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is well tolerated and may be used to patients with AECOPD who are intolerant to NPPV treatment. This study is to evaluate the physiological effect of HFNC and compare it with NPPV.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to identify the optimal flow rate during high flow nasal cannula therapy that will prevent airway obstruction and its associated desaturation and maintain saturation greater than 95% in patients undergoing ERCP procedure under intravenous deep sedation. This study aims to identify the optimal flow rate during high flow nasal cannula therapy that will prevent airway obstruction and its associated desaturation and maintain saturation greater than 95% in patients undergoing ERCP procedure under intravenous deep sedation. Participants will be randomized to 3 groups: G0 will receive a 5 l/ min flow rate through a nasal cannula at and FiO2 of 40 %, G1 will receive a 15 l/ min flow rate and FiO2 of 40% and G2: will receive a 60L/min flow rate and FiO2 of 40%. Researchers will compare intraprocedural factors to find out the optimal nasal cannula flow rate for maintenance of safe IV deep sedation in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) patients and to assess gastroenterologist and patient satisfaction.
High-flow nasal cannula is an oxygenation technique increasingly used for patients admitted for acute respiratory failure. Literature essentially concerns "de novo" acute hypoxemic failure and the interest of high-flow during take care of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients is few studied. Physiological studies reported potential benefits of high-flow nasal cannula oxygenation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients including dead space clearance and decrease of respiratory, which lead to decrease work of breathing. As inhaled bronchodilators are part of treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation, nebulization could be also provided through high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy. The aim of our study is to determine whether a beta-2 agonist nebulization administered through High-flow nasal cannula is efficient to improve spirometry of patients for admitted hronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation.
The main objective of the study is to gather preliminary data on the effectiveness of High Flow Nasal canula (HFNC), provided since the delivery room, for ventilatory support in newborns of 34-36 weeks with moderate respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of HFNC in this indication.
