NCT07452406
High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is a type of oxygen therapy commonly used in adults with breathing problems. While HFNC can help patients avoid breathing tubes and improve oxygen levels, there is no standard method for deciding how and when to reduce and stop this therapy once a patient improves. In many hospitals, these decisions vary from clinician to clinician. This study will compare usual care with a standardized step-by-step plan for reducing HFNC support. Eight hospitals will participate and will switch from usual care to the standardized plan at different time points during the study. The main goal is to determine whether the standardized weaning plan increases the number of patients who can successfully stop HFNC within 5 days. The study will also evaluate how long patients remain on HFNC, whether they need additional breathing support, and how long they stay in the hospital. The results may help develop clearer guidance for safely and efficiently stopping HFNC therapy.
NCT04184089
The aim of the current study is to compare the incidence of oxygen desaturation in patients receiving HFNC at different flow rates compared to conventional oxygen therapy via a simple cannula during ERCP. Secondary outcomes include lowest average observed oxygen saturation (SpO2), snoring classification scores and satisfaction levels of both patients and gastroenterologists. Participants will be randomized to 3 groups: G0 will receive a 5 l/ min flow rate through a nasal cannula at and FiO2 of 40 %, G1 will receive a 15 l/ min flow rate and FiO2 of 40% and G2: will receive a 60L/min flow rate and FiO2 of 40%.
NCT05526534
Patients at high risk of post-operative pulmonary complications (PPC) will be screened out from gynecological tumor patients undergoing surgical treatment, and randomly assigned into the HFNC group and control group, which uses conventional nasal cannula oxygen therapy. The primary outcome is the incidence of PPC, including postoperative hypoxemia, atelectasis, pneumonia, etc. Secondary outcomes are the improvement of postoperative oxygenation, antibiotic use, length of hospital stay, adverse events related to oxygen therapy, etc.
NCT06620081
The study evaluated patients on the national lung transplant waiting list. It was pioneering in assessing high-complexity patients with severe pulmonary diseases subjected to a cardiopulmonary rehabilitation protocol using a treadmill. The main findings indicate that the distance covered in the six-minute walk test was greater when using the high-flow nasal cannula supplementation. The improvement in exercise performance in this group is associated with a reduction in arterial carbon dioxide, optimization of hydrogen potential, and a decrease in dynamic hyperinflation, leading to fewer symptoms of dyspnea.
NCT06375538
The study aims to predict the failure of High-flow Nasal Cannula oxygenation therapy by ultrasound evaluation of diaphragm and intercostal muscle contraction during the first 24 hours.
