Filter by:The study is an open, prospective, single center clinical observational pilot investigation. The aim is to compare the carbon dioxide values measured by the IscAlert sensor, which is inserted in proximity to the nasal mucosa. The study wants to investigate if the nasal mucosa application and measurements are feasible, what kind of possible complications such a measurement can cause, and if the measurements can be a surrogate marker for systemic carbon dioxide values.
Hypothesis Treatment with HFNC and OptiflowTM+Duet can significantly reduce PaCO2 and normalize pH in patients with COPD exacerbation and acute hypercapnic failure, compared to HFNC with OptiflowTM. Treatment with High flow and OptiflowTM+Duet in patients with COPD exacerbation and acute hypercapnic failure is well tolerated. Aims To investigate the effect of HFNC in combination with either OptiflowTM or OptiflowTM+Duet nasal cannula on PaCO2 levels and pH in patients with COPD exacerbation and acute hypercapnic failure and compare the results of treatment with the two different nasal cannulas. To describe adherence to treatment with high flow and either OptiflowTM or OptiflowTM+Duet nasal cannula. Methods Study design The study will be carried out as a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. - Patients COPD and acute hypercapnic who do not tolerate NIV-treatment will be treated with HFNC for respiratory support. Patients will be randomized to either OptiflowTM /OptiflowTM+Duet nasal cannulas ("Fisher & Paykel Healthcare", Auckland, New Zealand) - HFNC treatment with allocated nasal cannula, flow 40-60 (prescribed by the responsible clinician) will be initiated, titration of FiO2 till target SO2 is reached (as prescribed by the responsible clinician or by default 88-92%). Maximal flow and target saturation should be reached within 1.5 hours of initiation. - Arterial puncture (registering pH, PaO2, PaCO2, HCO3, SaO2 and Base Excess) will be drawn at baseline and repeated after two hours (±30 minutes and after flow and FiO2 have been stable for 30 minutes) and at termination of the HFNC. - Patients will remain in study till it is decided by the treating physician to terminate HFNC-treatment. Patients who are candidates for invasive ventilations will be excluded from the study if the arterial blood gasses further deteriorate after initiation of HFNC.
This study targets adult patients treated with high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) at emergency department (ED) of Severance hospital, Yonsei university. Patients with acute hypoxic respiratory failure presenting to the ED receive conventional oxygen therapy as initial treatment unless immediate endotracheal intubation is required. Partial rebreathing oxygen masks are mainly applied at first. If the patient's condition does not improve despite such treatment, the patient receives HFNC or endotracheal intubation. However, possible treatment range have not been studied, especially in ED. Decisions are made based on the personal experience of the medical staff in charge. Applying HFNC to patients who eventually fail can lead to delayed intubation and increased mortality. Failure prediction models such as ROX index and HACOR score have been developed due to such reasons. However, such models are mostly based on intensive care unit studies and after application of HFNC. Therefore, failure prediction model at the time before application of HFNC and efficacy of existing models in ED are necessary. This study is a prospective observational study and follows the standard treatment guidelines applied to the patient and the judgment of the attending physician during the patient's treatment process. Immediately before applying HFNC, the patient's respiratory rate, pulse rate, blood pressure, SpO₂, PaO₂, PaCO₂, GCS score are determined, and FiO₂ is measured above upper lips using oxygen analyzer(MaxO2+AE, Maxtec, USA). From these data, ROX index (SF ratio/respiratory rate), ROX-HR (ROX index/pulse rate), POX index (PF ratio/respiratory rate), POX-HR (POX index/pulse rate), and HACOR score (Heart Rate, Acidosis, Consciousness, Oxygenation, Respiratory rate) are calculated. The settings (flow rate, FiO₂, temperature) at the time of HFNC application are also measured. The same indices and HFNC settings are checked 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, and 12 hours after applying HFNC. Modified Borg score and comfort scale using 5-point Likert scale are additionally determined at 30 minutes for patient's comfort. Primary outcome is HFNC failure at 28 days, defined by endotracheal intubation. Other outcomes include intubation in ED and mortality at 28 and 90 days collected through phone interview. The receiver operating curve for ROX index, HACOR score, ROX-HR, and POX-HR at baseline, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, and 12 hours are drawn for the outcomes. The area under the curve of the above indices are compared and cutoff values are chosen with maximum value of index J by the Youden's Index. A binary variable is created based on the cutoff values and multivariable logistic regression analyses are performed. Cutoff values for maximum specificity are also invested suggesting the lower limit of the indicator to which HFNC can be applied.
The goal of this study is to compare two different modes of noninvasive ventilation in hypercapnic respiratory failure. The investigators will compare AVAPS and BIPAP S/T and hypothesize that AVAPS will result in a decreased length of stay in the ICU or on telemetry. Currently, noninvasive ventilation is the standard of care for hypercapnic respiratory failure. However, the most effective mode for patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure is unclear.
Current evidence suggests a mechanistic and physiological rationale for the use of high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in acute respiratory hypoxemic failure (AHRF) based on physiological studies in airway models, healthy volunteers and patients with Chronic Obstructive Respiratory Disease (COPD). This is supported by observational studies in patients with AHRF with reductions in a range of respiratory and other physiological parameters. Observational studies also suggest similar intubation rates and lower failure rates with HFNC when compared to non-invasive ventilation (NIV) with improved patient acceptance and tolerance for HFNC. The role of HFNC is less clear in acute hypercapnic respiratory failure. Although non-invasive ventilation is the recommended treatment, it is associated with discomfort, and a significant proportion (up to 25% in some reports) cannot tolerate non-invasive ventilation. Observational reports and limited data from randomized controlled trials suggests that HFNC is effective in treating patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure. We designed this trial to assess whether early application of HFNC in patients with non-severe hypercapnic respiratory failure can correct barometric abnormalities, and prevent progression to non-invasive ventilation or tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation.
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of this new Prismalung+ membrane in its intended clinical setting by demonstrating a reduction in ventilatory parameters and pulmonary energy load or the successful maintenance of spontaneous breathing, respectively, the absence of the need to initiate vv-ECMO therapy, and initial survival.
Domiciliary non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a standard care for improving survival rates of selected patients with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure (CHRF) and to improve the patients' hypercapnia, sleep quality, health-related quality of life (QoL). Adherence is an important factor affecting clinical effectiveness of domiciliary NIV. Our previous study has noted the associations between poor domiciliary NIV adherence and increased number of clinical adverse events (p = 0.004) and increased hospitalization requiring acute NIV salvage (p = 0.042). However, there are very limited studies on adherence to domiciliary NIV in patients with CHRF. The only interventional study was a single-group pre-test post-test study and lack of a theoretical framework for guiding the intervention. This study is employing an Information-Motivation-Behavioral skills (IMB) model-based intervention to improve inhalation adherence in a group of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.
Patients are invited to participate in a trial to test a new way to optimise long-term use of non-invasive ventilation using remote monitoring. Breathing difficulties during sleep are frequently treated using home mechanical ventilation, also called non-invasive ventilation (NIV). Breathing difficulties during sleep affect many patients with conditions such as chronic pulmonary obstructive disease (COPD), neuromuscular conditions and obesity hypoventilation syndrome. Left untreated they can cause breathlessness, headaches, sleepiness and lead to hospitalisations and other severe adverse health outcomes. The best available treatment for chronic types of sleep-disordered breathing is NIV. However, not every patient eligible tolerates this treatment because it requires patients to sleep with a nasal or full-face mask that is connected with a tube to a machine. Although NIV is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), many patients who should be on NIV use the treatment insufficiently within months. Using remote monitoring to identify problems with treatment adherence early on may help to identify clinical problems, troubleshoot user- or device-dependent problems, avoid delays in treatment and safe healthcare resources in the long-term. The investigators invite patients who use NIV to participate in this trial when they have difficulties with the treatment (NIV). This study will evaluate compliance and efficacy of a remote monitoring device (T4P device, SRETT, Paris/France) that will be connected to the standard NIV machine to remotely monitor usage. Patients will be randomly assigned to the remote monitoring using NIV for three months at home, or to usual care which is NIV without this monitoring. The primary outcome measure of this study is the improvement in adherence and compliance, as indicated by the average usage of NIV, as well as symptom scores to assess treatment effects.
