No results posted yet for this study

Summary

High flow nasal therapy (HFNT) has not been well evaluated for treating hypercapnia The purpose of this study is to determine whether high flow nasal therapy (HFNT) can decrease hypercapnia and improve respiratory distress parameters in Emergency Department patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure related to cardiogenic pulmonary edema and to compare its efficacy to that of non invasive ventilation.

Conditions

  • Acute Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema
  • Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure

Interventions

DEVICE

High flow nasal therapy (HFNT) : Optiflow™

HFNT will be administered through a heated humidifier (Airvo 2, Fisher and Paykel healthcare) and applied through large bore binasal prongs. Initial gas flow rate will be set at of 60 l/min and adjusted to 40-50 l/min based on patient's tolerance. FiO2 will be adjusted to maintain an SpO2 ≥ 92%. Initial temperature will be set at 37° and reduced according to patient's tolerance

DEVICE

Non invasive ventilation (niv)

NIV will be delivered through a face mask connected to a dedicated ventilator with pressure support applied in a noninvasive ventilation mode (Monnal T75, Airliquide Medical Systems, Antony, France). The Pressure-support level will be adjusted to obtain an expired tidal volume of 6-8 ml/kg of predicted body weight and a respiratory rate of 25-30 b/min. PEEP (range 5-10 cm of water) and FiO2 will be adjusted to maintain an SpO2 ≥92% and to patient's comfort.
