High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy Versus Conventional Oxygen Therapy in High-altitude Pulmonary Edema

Официальное название

High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy Versus Conventional Oxygen Therapy in Patients With High-altitude Pulmonary Edema: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

Обзор

This study aims to evaluate whether High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy (HFNC) provides superior respiratory support compared to Conventional Oxygen Therapy (COT) in patients with High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE).

Подробное описание

Conventional Oxygen Therapy (COT) is the established first-line treatment for High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE). Despite the proven efficacy of High-flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) in treating other forms of acute respiratory failure and pulmonary edema, its clinical role in the context of HAPE remains poorly defined. To address this gap, the investigators conducted a study comparing the efficacy of HFNC versus COT in providing respiratory support and accelerating clinical recovery for patients with HAPE.

Вмешательства

• Устройство High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy (HFNC)
  High-flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) therapy was administered using a dedicated system with integrated active humidification and a heated-wire circuit, delivered via a wide-bore nasal cannula.

Первичные конечные точки

• Time to weaning off supplemental oxygen [Срок оценки: From date of randomization to oxygen therapy completion (oxygen weaning), an average of 3-5 days.]

Вторичные конечные точки (4)

• Proportion of treatment failure [Срок оценки: From date of randomization until the time of first documented treatment failure from any cause, assessed up to about 7 days.]
• The Net change in Lung CT Severity Score [Срок оценки: Day 3]
• Evolvement of SpO2 [Срок оценки: From enrollment to treatment completion, an average of 3-5 days.]
• Incidence of oxygen therapy-related complications [Срок оценки: From randomization to discharge, assessed up to about 7 days.]

Критерии участия

Критерии включения

• Aged 18 years or older;
• Onset of symptoms related to HAPE (including dyspnea at rest, cough, or exercise intolerance) within 7 days of ascending to high altitude (≥2500m);
• Diagnosis of HAPE according to the STAR data reporting guidelines, requiring at least two symptoms (dyspnea at rest, cough, weakness/decreased exercise performance, or chest tightness/congestion) and two clinical signs (rales or wheezing in at least one lung field, central cyanosis, tachypnea, or tachycardia);
• Radiographic evidence of pulmonary edema on chest X-ray or CT;
• Refusal or inability to undergo immediate descent at the time of presentation;
• Capability and willingness to provide written informed consent.

Критерии исключения

• Known or clinically confirmed pregnancy;
• Requirement for emergency intubation (as assessed by the treating clinician) due to cardiac/respiratory arrest, hemodynamic instability, airway compromise, severe hypoxia, or impaired consciousness, etc;
• Pulmonary edema or hypoxemia resulting from other medical conditions (e.g., cardiogenic pulmonary edema, sepsis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumothorax, massive pleural effusion, chest trauma, etc.);
• Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score ≤ 12;
• PaCO₂ > 55 mmHg;
• Presence of high-altitude cerebral edema;
• Receipt of any respiratory support therapy (other than conventional oxygen therapy) prior to admission;
• Presence of any contraindication to conventional or nasal oxygen therapy;
• Presence of severe medical conditions or abnormal clinical laboratory findings that, in the investigator's judgment, may pose a risk to the patient's safety or interfere with the study's execution and participant completion;
• Current participation in other clinical trials;
• Refusal to sign the informed consent form.
