Brief Summary

Non invasive ventilation is the standard of care in managing patients with exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However no optimal mode of NIV delivery is established; failure rates remain high, attributed to asynchrony and leak associated with NIV. Neurally adjust ventilator assist is a new mode that may improve patient ventilator interactions, improve synchrony and contribute to improved outcomes. Likewise ASV is a mode principled on the closed loop system and is associated with reduction of work associated with breathing and improved outcomes. In this randomised, non-blinded trial, we study these two modes of NIV delivery in patients of AECOPD with hypothesis being that better synchrony with NAVA may translate to better clinical outcomes.

  • 90-day mortality rate

    90 days

  • Time to NIV failure

    28 days

    Assessed every 8 hours until primary outcome

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

NAVA arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Delivery of NIV-NAVA NIV NAVA will be administered using Servo-i ventilator (Maquet, Getinge Group, Sweden) with software to compensate for air leaks. Subjects randomised to this arm will undergo placement of Edi catheter and will be initiated on NIV. Appropriate NAVA level will be selected based on the scalars corresponding to stable ventilation in pressure support mode. During NAVA, the NAVA level would be increased in multiples of 0.2 cm H2O/µV to attain favourable response (tidal volume 6-8mL/kg RR ≤25). Once the patient's clinical condition stabilises, and the Edi maximum starts declining or remains unchanged with stable tidal volumes, NAVA level will be decreased in steps of 0.2 cm H2O/μV every 2 hours. If response to new settings is not favourable earlier settings will be restored. If favourable response is attained the weaning is continued until peak pressure is \<12cm H20 and PEEP requirement is \<5cm H2O. NIV will be replaced by a venture mask to titrate SpO2 between 88-92%

Device: Non invasive ventilation

ASV arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients randomised to the ASV arm will receive NIV using a Galileo GOLD ventilator (Hamilton Medical, AG, Switzerland). The patients will be ventilated with an initial setting of 100%-minute volume (MV%). Increments of 10% will be made every 15 minutes to achieve clinical response (relief of dyspnea, RR\<30, and tidal volume 6-8mL/kg). The expiratory trigger sensitivity will be set at 35% and adjusted accordingly. PEEP will be commenced at 3-4 cm H2O and increased by 1 cm of H2O to achieve SpO2 between 89-92% and maximum PEEP of 10 cm of H2O. Weaning would be performed by reducing the MV% gradually in decrements of 10%/hour to a MV% of 60% after the peak inspiratory pressure decreases to \<8 cm of H2O, and the respiratory rate is \< 28 breaths per minute and patient is able to maintain SpO2 \> 90% at FiO2\< 30%. Once the patient is comfortable on these settings, NIV will be replaced with oxygen supplementation using a venturi mask to maintain SpO2 between 89 and 92%.

Device: Non invasive ventilation

Interventions

Non invasive ventilation will be delivered using an oro-facial interface in both arms. NIV NAVA will be administered using Servo-i ventilator (Maquet, Getinge Group, Sweden) with software to compensate for air leaks. ASV arm will receive NIV using a Galileo GOLD ventilator (Hamilton Medical, AG, Switzerland).
