Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of high-flow oxygen insuffiation (HFOI) via nasal cannula in reduction in re-intubation rate,length of ICU stay and improvement of respiratory function in patients at high risk of re-intubation after weaning from mechanical ventilation assessed by lung ultrasound score (LUS).Methods Single center randomized(random number) clinical trial was carried out in one intensive care units in China from May 2016 to May 2017 including critically ill patients ready for planned extubation with high-risk factors for re-intubation assessed by LUS when the LUS ≥ 14 was considered to be high risk.The comparisons of the length of ICU stay,re-intubation rate in case of respiratory failure,respiratory rate pulse rate SaO2 PaO2/FiO2 of patients at 6 h,24 h and 48 hours after extubation were made between HFOI and conventional oxygen therapy (COT) group.Results During the study period,32 patients were enrolled in the study.Of them,15 were assigned in HFOI group and 17 in COT group.The length of ICU stay (8.0±2.4)days vs.(10.9±3.5) days and re-intubation rate (6.7% vs.23.5%) were significantly different between two groups (P<0.05).The respiratory rate pulse rate SaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 of patients at 6 h after ex-tubation in HFOI group were improved than those in COT group (P<0.05);and the SaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 of patients 24 h and 48 h after ex-tubation in HFOI group had much more improvement than those in COT group (P<0.05).Conclusion Among high-risk adults who assessed by lung ultrasound score,high-flow oxygen therapy could reduce re-intubation rate length of ICU stay and improve the respiratory function.High-flow oxygen therapy may offer advantages for these patients.
