About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure

Eligibility Criteria

16 Years - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients over the age of 16 years.
  2. Patients with confirmed diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular dystrophy or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome.
  3. Patients with evidence of nocturnal hypoventilation with an arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure of >6.0 kPa in the morning.
  4. Patients with evidence of hypercapnic respiratory failure with an arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure of >6.0 kPa during the day.
  5. No prior domiciliary ventilation.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with other co-morbidities e.g. cancer or cardiac failure.
  2. Patients with muscular weakness but an unconfirmed diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
  3. Patients who have had an acute illness within the last 4 weeks prior to starting assessment for ventilation.
  4. Patients who have an abnormal bleeding tendency (INR or APTTr >1.4 or platelets <100).
  5. Patients with a psychological, social or geographical situation that would impair compliance with the project.

Sites / Locations

  • Guy's and St. Thomas' NHS Trust
  • Royal Brompton Hospital

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

No Intervention

Experimental

Arm Label

Physician led ventilator set up

parasternal electromyography (EMG) set up

Arm Description

Patients will be set up on non-invasive ventilation as per the current gold standard physician led approach

Ventilation parameters will be manipulated and titrated according to physiological measurements including signal from parasternal EMG and patient- ventilator asynchrony.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Adherence with ventilation
Data on patient reported compliance and ventilator recorded compliance will be collected.

Secondary Outcome Measures

health related quality of life
SRI, RAND-36, visual analogue scores, St. George's respiratory questionnaire
length of hospital stay for initiation of home mechanical ventilation
gas exchange
overnight oximetry, overnight capnography,arterial oxygenation, arterial carbon dioxide

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To evaluate a novel advanced physiological monitoring system to improve nocturnal non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in Neuromuscular disease (NMD), Chest wall disease (CWD), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome (OHS) patients. By enhancing sleep comfort, adherence to ventilation will increase which, in turn, will improve ventilatory failure, quality of life and reduce length of admission during initiation of therapy. We aim to incorporate this technology into routine clinical practice.
