High Flow Nasal Cannula vs NPPV in Moderate Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Exacerbation
A study testing High flow nasal cannula in people with COPD Exacerbation, run by China-Japan Friendship Hospital at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
For moderate AECOPD(pH<7.35), several guidelines have strongly recommended NPPV as standard therapy, which can reduce the rate of intubation and mortality. A few previous studies have shown that HFNC can efficiently improve alveoli ventilation and breathing pattern in some severe AECOPD patients. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Comparison of High Flow Nasal Cannula and Noninvasive Positive Ventilation(NPPV) in Moderate Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Exacerbation(AECOPD)
For moderate AECOPD(pH<7.35), several guidelines have strongly recommended NPPV as standard therapy, which can reduce the rate of intubation and mortality. A few previous studies have shown that HFNC can efficiently improve alveoli ventilation and breathing pattern in some severe AECOPD patients. Therefore, we hypothesize that HFNC is not inferior to NPPV for preventing endotracheal intubation in moderate AECOPD patients. To assess this hypothesis, we performed a multicenter, randomized, noninferiority trial of HFNV vs NPPV in moderate AECOPD patients.
Read the detailed description
Recently, many clinical studies have showed that HFNC can be successfully used in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure to improve the comfort, to attenuate respiratory failure and to decrease the rate of tracheal intubation and mortality. Although theoretically HFNC is a potential and ideal treatment for AECOPD patients, the related clinical researches are very few. It still needs to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of HFNC in patients with AECOPD. For moderate AECOPD(pH<7.35), several guidelines have strongly recommended NPPV as standard therapy, which can reduce the rate of intubation and mortality. A few previous studies have shown that HFNC can efficiently improve alveoli ventilation and breathing pattern in some severe AECOPD patients. Therefore, we hypothesize that HFNC is not inferior to NPPV for preventing endotracheal intubation in moderate AECOPD patients.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
High flow nasal cannulaDevice
Also called High flow oxygen
High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is a new emerging noninvasive respiratory support technology, which mainly includes high flow (15-60 L/min) device, heating humidification device and nasal cannula for high flow. A large number of physiological studies confirmed that HFNC has the following critical physiological effects: promoting airway humidification, improving tolerance of treatment, reducing the physiological dead space on the upper respiratory tract, producing a certain level of positive end expiratory pressure (2-7 cmH2O), decreasing the work of breathing and so on.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| High flow nasal cannula | Experimental | High flow nasal cannula(OptiflowTM); Flow 25-60 L/min is set according to patients' comfort; FiO2 is adjusted to maintain peripheral capillary oxygen saturation(SpO2) 90-95%; temperature is set at 37 degree centigrade. Receives: Device: High flow nasal cannula |
| Noninvasive positive ventilation | No intervention | Parameters are set according to NPPV protocols |
