Clinical Effect of the Association of Noninvasive Ventilation and High Flow Nasal Oxygen Therapy in Resuscitation of Patients With Acute Lung Injury (FLORALI Study) (FLORALI)

October 10, 2016 updated by: Poitiers University Hospital

Clinical Effect of the Association of Noninvasive Ventilation and High Flow Nasal Oxygen Therapy in Resuscitation of Patients With Acute Lung Injury. A Randomised Study (FLORALI Study)

The aim of the study is to compare, in patients with acute respiratory failure/acute lung injury the efficacy of three different methods of oxygenation to prevent endotracheal intubation :

  1. conventional oxygen therapy (O2 conventional)
  2. high flow nasal oxygen therapy (O2-HFN)
  3. association of high flow nasal oxygen therapy with non invasive positive pressure ventilation (O2-HFN/NPPV).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: O2 conventional : standard low flow therapy
in order to obtain a SpO2>92%
standard low flow therapy
Experimental: O2-HNF : high flow nasal oxygen therapy
set between 30 to 50 l/min,adjusted in order to obtain a SpO2 >92%.
The patient will receive high flow nasal of humidified oxygen, set between 30 to 50 l/min. The inspired fraction of oxygen (FiO2) will be adjusted in order to obtain a SpO2 >92%.
Experimental: O2-HFN/NPPV
cycling of NIV and O2-HDN
The patient will receive successively in a day NPPV and O2-HFN. The NPPV will be applied with an airway humidification achieved by using a heated humidifier and a facial mask adapted to the morphology of the patient. The settings will be adjusted as follow : an inspiratory pressure between 6 to 14 cmH2O, in order to obtain a tidal volume between 7 to 10 ml/kg of predicted weight, a positive expiratory pressure between 0 to 10 cmH2O in order to obtain a SpO2 >92% with the minimal FiO2.
