Summary

The purpose of this study is to analyze whether the treatment of metabolic alkalosis with acetazolamide in intubated patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or with obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) reduces the length of mechanical ventilation (MV).

Conditions

  • Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive
  • Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome
  • Metabolic Alkalosis

Interventions

DRUG

Acetazolamide

Daily morning ABGA: * If actual bicarbonate \> 26 mmol/L and pH \> 7.35: administration of enteral capsule of acetazolamide 500 mg . * If actual bicarbonate \> 26 mmol/L and pH \<= 7.35, increase minute ventilation to reach pH \> 7.35 and then administer enteral capsule of acetazolamide 500 mg. * If actual bicarbonate \<= 26 mmol/L: omit treatment that day.

DRUG

Placebo

Daily morning ABGA: * If actual bicarbonate \> 26 mmol/L and pH \> 7.35: administration of enteral capsule of placebo. * If actual bicarbonate \> 26 mmol/L and pH \<= 7.35, increase minute ventilation to reach pH \> 7.35 and then administer enteral capsule of placebo. * If actual bicarbonate \<= 26 mmol/L: omit treatment that day.
