Brief Summary

For moderate AECOPD(pH\<7.35), several guidelines have strongly recommended NPPV as standard therapy, which can reduce the rate of intubation and mortality. A few previous studies have shown that HFNC can efficiently improve alveoli ventilation and breathing pattern in some severe AECOPD patients. Therefore, we hypothesize that HFNC is not inferior to NPPV for preventing endotracheal intubation in moderate AECOPD patients. To assess this hypothesis, we performed a multicenter, randomized, noninferiority trial of HFNV vs NPPV in moderate AECOPD patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • endotracheal intubation demand rate

    90days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • actual endotracheal intubation rate

    90days

Study Arms (2)

High flow nasal cannula

EXPERIMENTAL

High flow nasal cannula(OptiflowTM); Flow 25-60 L/min is set according to patients' comfort; FiO2 is adjusted to maintain peripheral capillary oxygen saturation(SpO2) 90-95%; temperature is set at 37 degree centigrade.

Device: High flow nasal cannula

Noninvasive positive ventilation

NO INTERVENTION

Parameters are set according to NPPV protocols

Interventions

High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is a new emerging noninvasive respiratory support technology, which mainly includes high flow (15-60 L/min) device, heating humidification device and nasal cannula for high flow. A large number of physiological studies confirmed that HFNC has the following critical physiological effects: promoting airway humidification, improving tolerance of treatment, reducing the physiological dead space on the upper respiratory tract, producing a certain level of positive end expiratory pressure (2-7 cmH2O), decreasing the work of breathing and so on.
