HNFO With or Without Helmet NIV for Oxygenation Support in Acute Respiratory Failure Pilot RCT

Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure

This Randomized Control Trial will directly compare helmet non-invasive ventilation (NIV) combined with high flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) versus HFNO alone in patients with Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (AHRF).

High VS Low Flow Nasal O2 for Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure

Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory FailureAcute Exacerbation of COPD

Chronic lung conditions such as smoking related lung damage lead to breathing fail. This results in accumulation of gases such as carbon-di-oxide in the body especially during periods of illness known as exacerbation. Current management of carbon-di-oxide accumulation is administration of oxygen, nebulisers, antibiotics etc and if necessary, provide a tight fitting mask around the face to provide breathing support. If this fails, then a patient is placed on a mechanical ventilator. The tight fitting mask therapy is also called non-invasive ventilation and is used widely but patients acceptability of the therapy is limited. Providing a high flow of air with some oxygen could potentially provide the same benefit of the non-invasive ventilation and may also be better accepted by patients. Currently the knowledge and evidence from studies suggest a beneficial role for this high flow therapy but this has not been investigated in well designed studies. In the proposed study we aim to investigate whether use of the high flow therapy reduces the need for non-invasive ventilation in patients who present with a recent onset accumulation of carbon-di-oxide in their body due to long-term lung disease. If this shows benefit, it will lead to a bigger trial with patient benefiting by reduction in the non-invasive ventilation or indeed a need for an invasive breathing machine.

High Flow Nasal Cannula With Noninvasive Ventilation

Acute Respiratory Failure

This is a prospective, randomized, unblinded trial of trauma patients in the ICU who are identified as being at a high risk to develop acute respiratory failure. We hope that this study will help the study team to identify how best to use a more aggressive respiratory treatment strategy in a high risk trauma population (thoracic trauma or trauma patients requiring thoracic surgery, spine surgery, or open abdominal procedures) to try and decrease the need for intubation with mechanical ventilation.

Standard Oxygen Versus High Flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy in Patients With Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory...

Acute Respiratory FailureHypoxemic Respiratory Failure

First-line therapy of patients with acute respiratory failure consists in oxygen delivery through standard oxygen, high-flow nasal oxygen therapy through cannula or non-invasive ventilation. Non-invasive ventilation in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure is not recommended. In a large randomized controlled study, high-flow nasal oxygen has been described as superior to non-invasive ventilation and standard oxygen in terms of mortality but not of intubation. Paradoxically in immunocompromised patients, high-flow nasal oxygen has not been shown to be superior to standard oxygen. To improve the level of evidence of daily clinical practice, we propose comparing high-flow nasal oxygen versus standard oxygen, in terms of mortality in all patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure

Phase 2 Trial Using rhDNase to Reduce Mortality in COVID-19 Patients With Respiratory Failure

Covid19

This Phase 2 Randomized Placebo Controlled Trial will determine if administering nebulized Dornase Alpha (rhDNase) to COVID-19 patients with respiratory failure is safe and will reduce 28-day mortality.

Effects of High-flow Oxygen Therapy and Non-invasive Ventilation on Lung Volumes and on Upper Airway...

Respiratory Failure

Respiratory failure is the most frequent organ failure and cause for admission in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) . It is a severe complication with an ICU mortality ranged from 31% to 33%. Symptomatic treatment of hypoxemic respiratory failure is a controversial topic with different options: 1) standard oxygen therapy, 2) high flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) and 3) non-invasive ventilation (NIV). The aim of the study is to compare HFNC versus NIV ventilation using CT scan. The hypothesis of this study is that in hypoxemic critically ill patients, the increase of lung volumes with NIV would be significantly higher than the increase of lung volumes with HFNC.

Propofol Versus Esketamine for Rapid Sequence Intubation in Critically Ill Patients

Acute Respiratory Failure

Rapid-sequence intubation is routinely performed in critically ill patients. It is unclear whether different sedative agents may influence short-term outcomes after intubation, specially hemodynamic stability.
