Evaluation of Conventional Non-invasive Mechanical Ventilation (NIV) Versus an Automatic Ventilation Mode.

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure
Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure
Registration Number
NCT03872167
Lead Sponsor
Hospital Clinic of Barcelona
Brief Summary

To evaluate the polysomnographic performance of an automatic ventilatory mode compared with the gold standard (manual polysomnographic titration) to adjust chronic non-invasive ventilation by means of a randomized cross-over study.

Detailed Description

Prospective randomized crossover study in 26 patients with chronic non-invasive ventilation (NIV) criteria, comparing the NIV titration with polysomnography vs an automatic mode of ventilation. It will be compared with clinical parameters of ventilation, blood analysis and inflammation reactants as well as evaluating the patient's comfort after each mode.
