Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hospital Length of Stay

    Number of days/hours the patient is in the hospital after initiation of high-flow oxygen therapy

    Time frame begins when the patient is first started on heated high-flow oxygen therapy and ends when they are ready for discharge from the hospital. Expected time is a a few days but not expected to exceed 3 weeks.

Study Arms (2)

OLE Therapy with The MetaNeb® System

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects in the active treatment group will receive OLE therapy with The MetaNeb® System following the labeled instructions for the device.

Device: MetaNeb® System

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

The airway clearance regimen for subjects in the control group will be collected from the medical record.This information will be retrospectively collected from patients treated with standard care with no OLE therapy. Subjects in the control group will be identified from the population of patients previously admitted to the two study sites with COVID-19 infection who required invasive mechanical ventilation but were not treated with OLE therapy.

Interventions

The intervention device use in this study is The MetaNeb® System (Hill-Rom; St. Paul, MN). It is an FDA 510k cleared device (k124032), powered by compressed gas, that delivers oscillation and lung expansion (OLE) therapy using both continuous high-frequency oscillation (CHFO) and continuous positive expiratory pressure (CPEP). The device also provides supplemental oxygen when used with compressed oxygen and can deliver aerosol therapy during CPEP and/or CHFO. The therapy is indicated for mobilization of secretions, lung expansion therapy and the treatment and prevention of pulmonary atelectasis. The device also provides supplemental oxygen when used with compressed oxygen.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patient (\> 18 years of age)
  • Tested positive or person under investigation (PUI) for COVID-19 infection
  • Currently require heated high-flow oxygen therapy to maintain SaO2 \> 90 %
  • Signed informed consent (phone consent)
  • Heated high-flow oxygen initiated within the past 72 hours

You may not qualify if:

  • Serious medical condition that, in the investigator's judgment, precludes the patient's safe participation in the study
  • Pressure related risk for pneumothorax
  • Patient inability or unwillingness to tolerate OLE therapy
  • Staff unavailable or unable to deliver therapy
  • Current requirement for mechanical ventilation or expected requirement for mechanical ventilation within the next 12 hours
