Sleep and Daytime Use of Humidified Nasal High-flow Oxygen in COPD Outpatients

May 11, 2021 updated by: Temple University

Feasibility of Using Daily Home HNHF-O2 During Sleep and/or Daytime in Hypercapnic COPD Patients Following Recent (&lt 12 Wks.) Hospitalization for AECOPD for 90 Days

Humidified Nasal High-flow with Oxygen (HNHF-O2) therapy has been reported to have acute beneficial effects in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure who have been hospitalized. The usefulness of this therapy in the outpatient setting is unproven. This pilot study will test the feasibility of using this therapy in the outpatient setting and its effects on sleep.

Detailed Description

Humidified Nasal High-flow with Oxygen (HNHF-O2) therapy has been reported to have acute beneficial effects in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure. HNHF-O2 may be beneficial in patients with COPD and chronic impairments in gas exchange, both hypoxemia as well as hypercapnia. HNHF-O2 may decrease work of breathing, reduce dyspnea, improve airway humidification, and potentially stabilize or reduce carbon dioxide levels. However, there is limited data showing the chronic effects of HNHF-O2 in patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure, specifically those discharged to home following hospitalization for an acute exacerbation. Data that demonstrates that HNHF-O2 is well tolerated, and stabilizes or improves gas exchange long term in patients with COPD is lacking. Similarly, data that demonstrates that this therapeutic regimen is feasible to provide to patients in the home environment are lacking. This is an open-labeled pilot study of thirty patients to determine the safety and feasibility of using the device in the outpatient management of patients with COPD. A subset of ten patients will have serial sleep studies to determine the effects, if any, on sleep.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

40 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • admitted to the hospital for an acute exacerbation of COPD within the past 12 weeks
  • have COPD as the primary diagnosis
  • have smoked > 10 pack years.
  • receiving supplemental oxygen as part of their usual clinical care.
  • willing to give informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • upper airway or nasal problems that prohibit the use of high flow oxygen
  • current use (≤ 4 weeks of study entry) of any PAP-therapy (e.g., CPAP or NPPV)
  • sleep apnea as follows: STOPBang scores ≥ 5 or STOPBang score ≥ 2 plus BMI > 35 kg/m2; or Berlin questionnaire scores suggesting high likelihood of sleep apnea with increased risk of sleep-related accident (e.g., occupation as a commercial driver or pilot);
  • excessive daytime sleepiness (i.e., either of High (>15) score on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale or "fall asleep" accident or "near miss" accident in prior 12 months).

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Other: Nasal high flow with oxygen
While in the clinic High Flow Nasal Cannula oxygen will be passed through a heated humidifier (AIRVO-2, Fisher and Paykel Healthcare) and applied continuously through large-bore binasal prongs (Optiflow+ Fisher and Paykel Healthcare), with a gas flow rate of 20-35 liters per minute or as high as the patient will tolerate and an FiO2 to keep arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) > 90%. Temperature will be adjusted based on patient's comfort and range from 34-37 degrees based on prior experience. The subject will be discharged to home and instructed to use the high flow nasal cannula system at night and during the daytime while at home and resting.
Device: Humidified nasal high flow with oxygen
The AIRVO 2 is for the treatment of spontaneously breathing patients who would benefit from receiving high flow warmed and humidified respiratory gases.
