Clinical Trial Summary

Postoperative pulmonary complications are one of the most common complications after surgery.

Noninvasive ventilation has been proposed post-operatively to prevent postoperative pulmonary complications.

Prophylactic noninvasive ventilation performed systematically in a non-specific population is without interest.

The difficulty for the practitioner is to target patients at higher risk of developing a postoperative pulmonary complications in order to guiding them to a post-operative specialized care pathway.

The use of the ARISCAT score, validated on a large European prospective cohort, makes it possible to evaluate, preoperatively, the risk of occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complication in the patient.

The hypothesis of the present research is that early postoperative preventive treatment with noninvasive ventilation, in patients at risk of postoperative pulmonary complications according to the preoperative evaluation according to the ARISCAT score, could have an interest in reducing these complications with a superior efficiency over standard techniques.


Clinical Trial Description

After verification of eligibility criteria and ARISCAT score, patients at high risk of COPD are randomized in the study.

At the exit of the operating room, patients are referred to the services according to their randomization arm :

- arm with prophylactic noninvasive ventilation in intensive care unit. Patients will receive noninvasive ventilation for a maximum of 48 hours. Sessions last 1 hour and are repeated every 2 to 3 hours

- arm with standard care in conventional care unit. Patients receive standard care such as physiotherapy.

In both arms, patient follow-up is 7 days maximum. ;
