About this study

Official title: The Diaphragm Activity Level and Cardiopulmonary Function Between Heated Humidified High-Flow Nasal Cannula and Unheated Humidified High-Flow Oxygen Mask in Acute Exacerbation of COPD Patients as Post-Extubation Respiratory Support

Patients with COPD exacerbation usually need respiratory support after extubation. Recently, HHHFNC has been used in both adult and neonates with post-extubation respiratory support. Studies indicate that HHHFNC has seminar efficacy compared to non-invasive positive pressure ventilation and superior than conventional oxygen therapy. There are no clinical data of diaphragm electrical activity and cardiopulmonary function for using HHHFNC and UHFOM as post-extubation respiratory support.

Read the detailed description

Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the Edi level and cardiopulmonary parameters between heated humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC) versus unheated high-flow oxygen mask (UHFOM) in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with post-extubation respiratory support. This is the first clinical trial to investigate and analysis the variations of cardiopulmonary parameters and Edi level between HHHFNC and UHFOM in adult patients.

Being tested
HHHFNC, UHFOM

Model description
Patents with COPD exacerbation who were intubated for respiratory failure will all enrolled to this study. Participants will be studied on 2 consecutive days and random assigned with crossover. The primary outcome measure is the diaphragm electrical activity. The secondary outcome measures include the cardiopulmonary function, length of hospital stay, and re-intubation rate.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HHHFNC and UHFOM in people with Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease and Respiratory Insufficiency, run by Fu Jen Catholic University at 1 site in Taiwan.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Oct 2022. 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 Taiwan. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Difficult to recruit participants). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Diaphragm electrical activity (time frame: 2 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 NCT03811158, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 27 Oct 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
