Comparison of High Flow Oxygenation Therapy and CPAP in Children With Bronchiolitis.

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Respiratory Syncytial Virus Bronchiolitis

• Registration Number: NCT02618213
• Lead Sponsor: Esbjerg Hospital - University Hospital of Southern Denmark

Brief Summary

Bronchiolitis in infants and young children often requires respiraty support. In Denmark Continous Positive Airway Pressure ( CPAP) are routinely used in children with moderate-severe bronchiolitis. The aim of the study is to compare CPAP and High Flow Oxygenation Therapy (HFOT) as tools of respiratory support in infants and young children with bronchiolitis.

Infants and young children with moderate-severe bronchiolitis and are randomized to either CPAP or HFOT.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
respiration rate	after 6 12 18 24 and 48 hour of intervention	change in respiration rate ( RR) from preintervention value
Modified asthma score (MWAS)	Once daily as long as intervention precedes ( 1-14 days)	Change in MWAS from pre intervention value
PCo2	after 6 12 24 and 48 hours of intervention	Change in PCo2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide)from pre intervention value

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
treatment length	from beginning of intervention to discontinuation (1-14 days)	duration of need of intervention ( hours)
patient acceptance of intervention	daily VAS score (0-5) from beginning of intervention to discontinuation (1-14 days)	VAS score of tolerance with intervention. 0 = worst possible acceptance 5 = fully acceptance
Hspitalization	from hospitalization to release (1-21 days)	duration of hospitalisation ( days)
Intervention failure.	from beginning of intervention to discontinuation.(1-14 days)	numbers of intervention failure defined as change of intervention or progression to need for intensive care/ mechanical ventilation.
