简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess whether Optiflow, a high-flow humidified oxygen delivery system, is superior to standard oxygen therapy during breaks off noninvasive ventilation in patients affected by acute respiratory failure and in respiratory distress. The investigators anticipate that the Optiflow will provide oxygen more effectively, be more comfortable and permit longer breaks off NIV, shortening the total duration of NIV.
详细描述
Background: Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) provides respiratory support to many patients affected by acute respiratory failure. This treatment, compared to invasive mechanical ventilation, allows patients to take intermittent breaks during which oxygen therapy is provided through a nasal cannula or mask. During these breaks, the lack of ventilator support may predispose to respiratory distress, retention of CO2 and oxygen desaturation. Optiflow is a nasal humidified (37◦C, 44mg/L H2O) high-flow (up to 60 L/min) therapy which can provide greater support than standard oxygen therapy during the breaks from NIV.
Aim of the study is to evaluate Optiflow as an alternative to standard oxygen therapy during breaks from NIV in patients with acute respiratory failure. The investigators hypothesize tha Optiflow will reduce the total length of stay on NIV, and increase the comfort and length of the breaks. Also, the investigators anticipate that it will reduce respiratory rate, accessory muscle use and dyspnea score compared to standard oxygen therapy.
Experimental design Prospective open-label, parallel, randomized (1:1) controlled study, with a target enrollment of 70.
Study procedures Enrolled patients receiving NIV will be randomized into two arms; a treatment group which will receive Optiflow during breaks and a control arm which will receive standard oxygen therapy during breaks. In both cases, FiO2 will be titrated to maintain oxygen saturation above 90%. The necessity of breaks will be determined together with the patients (talk, eat, medication, communicate with family, inability to tolerate the interface), and the need to resume NIV will be based on clinical data, such as dyspnea, respiratory rate, heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, transcutaneous carbon dioxide (CO2) and patients' desire.
Recorded data: The investigators will record demographic baseline data; Glasgow Coma Scale, respiratory and heart rate, blood pressure, dyspnea score, accessory muscle use, and comfort score at randomization, at the end of each NIV session and NIV break; the length of each NIV session and break; the medications administered and all the arterial blood gases (ABG) on a daily basis. Moreover the investigators will record the NIV parameters and inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2) at each session and break.

结局指标
主要结局
Length of Stay on Noninvasive Ventilation (NIV)
时间窗: Day 1-7
The investigator will measure the total time on NIV in day(s), hours and minutes. This is done by having nursing staff note times of NIV start to finish of each session of NIV. They were added to get cumulative time.
次要结局

- Ease of Eating(Day 1-4)
- Assessment of Respiratory Rate During Break(day 1-4)
- Oxygen Saturation During Breaks(day 1-4)
