High Flow Nasal Cannulae vs Venturi Mask in Respiratory Failure Due to Pneumonia : Open Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial Comparing Oxygen Therapy by High Flow Nasal Cannulae and by Venturi Mask in the Treatment of Acute Respiratory Failure Due to Severe Pneumonia (Hi Flow Oxygen vs Venturi Mask In Pneumonia)

1.1 Basic information Pneumonia is still the most important infectious disease in terms of morbidity and mortality and is one of the most common causes of hospitalization for acute respiratory failure. The aim of this trial is to compare the use of High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) oxygenation versus standard oxygen therapy in patients with hypoxemia due to pneumonia.1.2 Rationale The oxygenation through HFNC allows the use of high concentrations of oxygen administered by a high gas flow, heated and humidified. This device allows both higher FiO2 and the presence of a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) with a greater gas exchange.2. Aims OF THE STUDY 2.1 Primary aim The primary aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of treatment with HFNC (group A) compared to administration of oxygen therapy by Venturi mask (group B, standard therapy) in terms of clinical failure during acute respiratory failure due to severe pneumonia 2.2 Secondary aimsThe secondary aims are:30-day mortality gas exchange improvement in-hospital length of stay adverse events as per prior3. STUDY DESIGN 3.1 Design This is randomized, open, controlled, multicenter study 3.2 Number of patients The sample size is 150 patients. The enrolled subjects will be randomized in two Arms: Arm 1, intervention, 75 patients treated with HFNC, minimum flow ≥ 60L / min, FiO2 such as to maintain a SpO2 ≥ 92%, and Arm 2, reference technique, 75 patients treated with oxygen with Venturi mask, with FiO2 as to maintain a SpO 2 ≥ 92%.3.3 Duration of the study The estimated time to complete the recruitment of cases is 24 months. Each subject will be followed from enrolment until discharge.3.4 Evaluation 3.5.1 Primary endpoint The primary endpoint is the achievement of clinical failure defined as at least one major criteria OrAt least ≥2 of the minor criteria maintained for at least 1 consecutive hour:MAJOR CRITERIA:Cardiac or respiratory arrest Breathing pauses with loss of consciousness Severe hemodynamic instability Need for sedationMINOR CRITERIA:Reduction ≥30% of the value of the PaO 2 / FiO 2 compared to baseline Increased 20% if PaCO2 PaCO2 previous ≥40mmHg Worsening alertness as increased by one degree on the Kelly scale Persistence or onset of respiratory distress3.5.2 Secondary endpointThe secondary endpoint includes:30 days mortality after admission. improvement of respiratory exchanges compared to baseline, rated at 1, 24 and 48 hours and at the achievement of clinical stability with arterial blood gas.rate of adverse events length of hospital stay. 3.5.3 Follow-up At 30 days from admission, each subject will be assessed, possibly through telephone contact, to determine the status of life (secondary endpoint).4. STUDIED POPULATION AND SELECTION CRITERIA 4.1 Examined population The studied population consists of individuals with pneumonia presenting to the Emergency Departments 4.2 Inclusion/exclusion criteria (see appropriate section)5. SCREENING PROCEDURES, RANDOMISATION, MASKING 5.1 Randomization The statistician of the study will make randomization, preparing a list generated by the computer using a special program. The experimenter center will receive a group of envelopes progressively numbered, opaque, sealed in order to avoid any opening.5.2 Masking This study is open, not being justified a possible double masking technique or sham procedures.6. SCHEDULE AND STUDY PROCEDURES The study is divided into a baseline visit, followed by 1 visit at 1 hour, in the next 24 hours, followed by another visit during the 48-hour and the last when clinical stability is achieved The patient then will be followed until discharge and with a visit or a follow-up interview after 30 days of admission to determine the status of life.6.1 Clinical evaluationClinical evaluations include:collection of history (prior and concomitant diseases), and any concomitant therapies complete physical exam only at baseline respiratory symptoms at each evaluation vital signs during each evaluation dyspnea assessment at every clinical evaluation, using the Borg scale axillary body temperature (BT) every 8 hours Kelly scale assessment at each evaluation.6.2 Laboratory evaluations Unless otherwise specified, the following tests will be performed on admission, 24 hours and then every 48 hours until discharge criteria are reached.CBC: (5 mL in EDTA); Biochemistry: blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, serum sodium, potassium, glucose, ALT, AST, creatine phosphokinase (CPK), bilirubin, C-reactive protein, albumin (5 mL whole blood); lactates: performed at baseline and subsequent blood gas controls (3 mL of whole blood) pregnancy test on the urine sample (only at baseline) The arterial blood gas analysis (BGA) with the calculation of PaO2/FiO2 will be performed on admission, at 1, 24, at 48 hours, and at the achievement of clinical stability, and whenever there is a clinical worsening.6.3 Instrumental exams Routine chest x-ray on admission, as well as whenever a clinical deterioration occurs.6.4 Examinations plan 6.4.1 Baseline medical exam For each patient it will be made physical examination and lab evaluation as described previously Then it will proceed to randomization as indicated in § 5.2. 6.4.2 Treatment period The doctor in charge is free to perform all measurements, including BGA, as needed to assess the patient's condition. These will be in the clinic folder but they are not part of the data analyzed for the study, with the exception of blood gas analysis necessary to determine the minor intubation criteria (§ 3.5.1). Such measures will be noted for determination of primary endpoint, but they will not be used for the measurement of gas exchange trend (secondary endpoint).For the analysis of secondary endpoint, after 24 hours, 48 hours and the achievement of clinical stability should be measured and recorded:vital parameters (BP, HR, RR). The BT is measured every 8 hours with other vital parameters evaluation of dyspnea using both the Borg scale and the Kelly scale adverse events BGA during the treatment with lactate measurement (maintaining the HFNC and oxygen therapy with a mask as defined for randomization) and evaluation of P/F ratio, A-a difference of O2 and arterial O2 consumption.24 hours after randomization there will be rated the severity score the SAPS-II scale and the SOFA score in case of sepsis.Every 48 hours there will be performed blood samples (CBC, biochemistry, CRP) until the clinical stability is reached.If intubation criteria are reached, the study must be regarded as concluded. For patients enrolled in HFNC arm, the ventilatory support therapy using HFNC must be continued until the clinical stability, considered as the fulfillment of the following clinical stability.After attainment of all clinical stability, there will be an attempt to remove HFNC and to put the patient in Venturi mask, with the same FiO2 as the HFNC used before.This step will be considered definitive when one hour after the attempt the SpO2 remains 94-98% and the absence of respiratory distress or FR <25 acts per minutes.For patients in Venturi group, as soon as clinical stability is reached through the fulfillment of clinical stability criteria, the successive evaluation takes place at the time of discharge.6.4.3 End-study medical examination The visit will take place at the end of the study at the time of discharge or when intubation criteria will be achieved.Evaluation will include:vital parameters (BP, HR, RR) respiratory symptoms using both the Borg and the Kelly scale SpO2 6.4.4 Observations to 30 days or in case of unplanned evaluationAfter 30 days of enrolment the patient will be requested via telephone interview of the subject or of the reference family:If the participant is alive any hospitalization7. STUDIED TECHNIQUES The two techniques in this trial are widely known and used for oxygen therapy, although still lacks a comparative assessment of efficiency in the case examined in this study8. ASSESSMENT OF SCIENTIFIC AIMS 8.1 See appropriate section on Outcome measures 9. STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS 9.1 Studied population The study population consists of adult and consenting subjects, from to the ER population diagnosed with pneumonia as the unique cause of acute respiratory and PaO2/FiO2 ≤ 250 during oxygen with Venturi mask with FiO2 50% administered for at least 60 minutes.9.2 Study design The study follows the randomized, controlled design vs. standard open intervention. Randomization is defined by the main statistician. The center receives a set of disposable sealed envelopes, opaque, prepared by the main statistician in blocks in accordance with procedures stored by itself. Each subject enrolled will receive the treatment indicated inside the envelope with the lowest number available.9.3 Outcome measures of the study See appropriate section on Outcome Measures9.4 Study hypothesis The study aims to evaluate the null hypothesis according to the proportion of patients reaching the primary endpoint does....
