Study of High Flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen for Bronchoscopy With Bronchoalveolar Lavage in ICU Patients (Optibal)

February 25, 2016 updated by: Prof Jean-Damien RICARD, Hôpital Louis Mourier

High Flow Nasal Oxygen for Bronchoscopy With Bronchoalveolar Lavage in Acute Respiratory Failure Patients: the OptiBAL Study.

Bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is at risk for worsening hypoxemia in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). High-flow nasal cannula oxygen (HFNC) improves hypoxemia in ARF patients . We investigated its efficacy and tolerance in intensive care unit patients admitted for ARF requiring BAL.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Prospective, observational, multicenter study in ARF patients (minimal pulse oximetry -SpO2- of 92% with an minimal oxygen flow of 6 L/min , respiratory rate > 25/min (20/min if use of accessory respiratory muscles) with a compatible etiology. Primary outcome measure is increase in ventilatory support (non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) or endotracheal intubation (ETI)) within the first 24h following BAL.

Study Population

Adult patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring bronchoalveolar lavage

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • presence of acute respiratory failure: defined as respiratory rate greater than 25/min, (or greater than 20/min if use of accessory respiratory muscles was present), in patients requiring oxygen greater than or equal to 6 L/min to obtain a pulse oximetry greater than 92%
  • need for bronchoalveolar lavage (decision to perform BAL was left at the physician's discretion)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • at least one contraindication to the bronchoscopy with BAL: acute coronary syndrome within 6 weeks; neurologic failure; thrombocytopenia less than 30 000/mm3; respiratory acidosis with a pH lower than 7.30 or hypercapnia higher than 60 mmHg; pneumothorax undrained.
