Summary

Multicenter randomized trial centered on critically-ill tracheostomized patients, comparing two different decannulation protocols:

1. based on capping trials to decide decannulation,
2. based on the aspiration frequency to decide decannulation time. High-flow conditioned oxygen therapy will be applied to all patients through the tracheal cannula. In patients included in the suctioning frequency based protocol along the study period and in patients included in the capping trial protocol along periods out of capping trials.

Conditions

  • Tracheostomy
  • Airway Management
  • Respiratory Therapy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Decannulation protocol.

Comparison of two different decannulation protocols: one protocol based on capping trial tolerance to decide when to decannulate vs. protocol based on suctioning frequency of respiratory secretions to decide when to decannulate (criteria: ≤2 aspirations every 8 h along 24 consecutive hours).

DEVICE

High flow conditioned oxygen therapy

High flow conditioned oxygen therapy will be applied during all study period through tracheal cannula in the experimental arm (suctioning frequency based protocol) and during periods out of capping trials in the control arm (capping trials based protocol).
