CPAP Therapy Through a Helmet or a Full Face Mask in Patients With Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure: Cross-over Study
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Observational and randomized trials have demonstrated the high effectiveness of non-invasive helmet ventilatory support, demonstrating a reduction in intubation rate mortality compared with high-flow and standard oxygen therapy. Some pilot physiological studies have shown physiological benefits of helmets compared to the oronasal mask for non-invasive ventilation. The purpose of the study is to compare markers of patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI), patient's comfort, work of breathing, gas exchange, and hemodynamics in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) during non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in continuous positive pressure (CPAP) mode during an oronasal mask ventilation or a combination of a helmet with high-flow oxygenation as an air flow generator.

Detailed Description
In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel coronavirus emerged in Wuhan, China and rapidly spread worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak a pandemic on March 11th, 2020. The clinical disease (COVID-19) results in critical illness in about 5% of patients with predominant acute respiratory failure. Observational and randomized trials have demonstrated the high effectiveness of non-invasive helmet ventilatory support, demonstrating a reduction in intubation rate mortality compared with high-flow and standard oxygen therapy. Some pilot physiological studies have shown physiological benefits of helmets compared to the oronasal mask for non-invasive ventilation.
The purpose of the study is to compare markers of patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) (measuring esophageal pressure, transpulmonary pressure during inspiration and expiration), the patient's work of breathing (assessment of accessory muscles work) patient's comfort by visual-analog scale, gas exchange (by PaO2/FiO2 and Respiration Oxygenation Index (ROX-index), and hemodynamics in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) during non-invasive pulmonary ventilation (NIV) in continuous positive pressure (CPAP) mode during an oronasal mask ventilation or a combination of a helmet with high-flow oxygenation as an air flow generator.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Helmet-CPAP then Mask-CPAP CPAP via Helmet 40 minutes, then CPAP via full face mask 40 minutes |
Diagnostic Test: Arterial blood gases

Diagnostic Test: Respiratory rate (RR)
Measurement of respiratory rate by waveform analysis using a ventilator
Diagnostic Test: Pulseoximeter
Peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurement and the ROX-index calculation (SpO2/FiO2/RR)
Diagnostic Test: Assessment of accessory respiratory muscles work
Patrick score calculation. Score: 0. No visible tonic or phasic use of neck muscles. 1. Neck muscles taut but with no respiratory modulation (i.e., tonic activity). 2. Mild respiratory modulation in neck muscle contraction. 3. Moderate phasic activity (no supraclavicular or intercostal indrawing). 4. Vigorous phasic activity with indrawing. 5. Vigorous phasic activity with abdominal paradox.
