No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the study is to assess, in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, the short term physiologic effects of the high flow oxygen nasal therapy (Optiflow), in term of inspiratory muscle effort, gas exchange, comfort and dyspnea

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

O2stand

Standard low flow oxygen therapy (O2stand). The patients will receive oxygen delivered through a face mask. The FiO2 will be adjusted in order to obtain a SaO2 \> 90%. The FiO2 will be determined by a portable oxygen analyzer (MiniOX I; Mine Safety Appliances Co, Pittsburgh, Pa)

PROCEDURE

CPAP

o Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). CPAP will be set at 7.5 cmH2O. Airway humidification will be achieved by using a heated humidifier (MR640; Fisher \& Paykel, Auckland, NZ). The FiO2 will be adjusted in order to obtain a SaO2 \> 90%. A facial mask composed of a transparent mask and a soft inflatable will be used

PROCEDURE

Optiflow

High flow oxygen nasal therapy (Optiflow). The flow will be set at 40l/min. The inspired fraction of oxygen (FiO2) will be adjusted in order to obtain a SaO2 \> 90%
