Awake Prone Positioning of Patients Suffering Community Acquired Pneumonia Requiring Nasal High Flow Therapy
- Conditions
- Community-acquired Pneumonia
- Registration Number
- NCT06966310
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Tours
- Brief Summary
Community acquired pneumonia, in particular when requiring oxygen therapy because of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure and meeting acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) criteria frequently leads to tracheal intubation and poor outcome.
Among invasively mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS and presenting a PaO2/FiO2 ratio (arterial partial pressure of oxygen to inspired fraction of oxygen) of less than 150 mmHg, the prone position significantly reduces mortality and represents standard care (Guérin 2013). Among non-intubated COVID-19 patients, a subtype of viral community acquired pneumonia, a recent study showed that awake prone positioning reduces the composite outcome of intubation or death among patients requiring nasal high flow therapy. Furthermore, it favored weaning of nasal high flow therapy.
Prone position in patients with non-COVID ARDS treated with high nasal flow was evaluated in 20 patients with predominantly viral pneumonia (Ding 2020) and was associated with improved oxygenation.
We hypothesize that prone positioning of patients suffering non-COVID community acquired pneumonia and undergoing nasal high flow therapy can significantly improve outcome by reducing the need for intubation and associated therapies such as sedation and muscle relaxation.

Study & Design
- Study Type
- INTERVENTIONAL
- Study Design
- PARALLEL
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Intubation within 28 days of randomization From randomization to day 28 Analyzed in a competing risk framework with death and intensive care unit discharge taken into account as competing events.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Evolution of patient's quality of life At 5 years using the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire
Patient comfort before the first prone session, using a visual analogue scale. From randomization to 6 hours Patient comfort during the first prone session, using a visual analogue scale. From randomization to day 1 Patient comfort after the first prone session, using a visual analogue scale. From randomization to day 1 Oxygenation (PaO2/FiO2 ratio and ROX index [ratio of SpO2/FiO2 to respiratory rate, Roca 2019]) before the first prone session for patients in the intervention group. From randomization to 6 hours Oxygenation (PaO2/FiO2 ratio and ROX index [ratio of SpO2/FiO2 to respiratory rate, Roca 2019]) during the first prone session for patients in the intervention group. From randomization to day 1 Oxygenation (PaO2/FiO2 ratio and ROX index [ratio of SpO2/FiO2 to respiratory rate, Roca 2019]) after the first prone session for patients in the intervention group. From randomization to day 1 Daily patient comfort comparison between groups from day 1 to day 3, using a visual analogue scale. From day 1 to day 3 Oxygenation (PaO2/FiO2 ratio and ROX index) daily comparison between groups from day 1 to day 3. From day 1 to day 3 Time to treatment escalation to non-invasive ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) with intubation or death as competing events (up to day 28 or intensive care unit discharge whichever occurs first). From randomization to day 28 or intensive care unit discharge whichever occurs first Time to successful weaning of nasal high flow with intubation or death as competing events (up to day 28 or intensive care unit discharge whichever occurs first). From randomization to day 28 or intensive care unit discharge whichever occurs first Time to intensive care unit discharge and time to hospital discharge (up to day 28). From randomization to day 28 Mortality From randomization to day 28 or intensive care unit and hospital discharge Nursing workload: time spent in the patient room by nursing staff during the 24 hours post randomization in both groups From randomization to 24 hours post randomization measured as person.hours
Safety: skin lesions, lines dislodgement, central line infection, vomiting, (up to day 28 or intensive care unit discharge whichever occurs first). From randomization to day 28 or intensive care unit discharge whichever occurs first).
