About this study

The main oxygen therapy to the patients with acute exacerbation of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, who are mild to moderate respiratory insufficiency (arterial blood gas analysis showed pH = 7.35, PO2 < 60mmHg,PaCO2>45mmHg) or have achieved the traditional noninvasive ventilation support standard but can not tolerate or reject, was nasal catheter, venturi mask and other conventional oxygen therapy. All these inaccurate inhaled oxygen concentration methods with inadequate heating and humidifying lead to poor patient tolerance and adverse reactions such as airway secretions discharge disorders. The high flow nasal respiratory therapy (Nasal high flow, NHF) utilises higher gas flow rates than conventional low-flow oxygen systems. The devices used deliver heated and humidified oxygen at a flow of up to 60 litres per minute via nasal cannulas with low level continous positive airway pressure. This study is a prospective randomized study. AECOPD patients with no severe respiratory failure are treated with NHF and conventional oxygen therapy respectively. The target is that NHF can increase the comfort degree of patients,reduce the rate of endotracheal intubation, and shorten the time of hospitalization.

    Measured: 5 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Length of hospital stay

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Costs of hospitalization expenses

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nasal high flow cannula (Fisher & Paykel Healthcare, Auckland, New Zealand) and nasal catheter or Venturi mask in people with Lung Diseases, Obstructive, run by Li Xuyan at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Treatment failure criteria (time frame: 5 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02439333, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jan 2020.
