NCT04758910

Brief Summary

While the high flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) respiratory support system, delivered through nasal cannulas, has demonstrated clinical benefits on respiratory function, limited data exist on whether such effects are also present in HFOT through tracheostomy. Therefore, the aim of the proposed study is to examine the short-term effects of HFOT as opposed to oxygen therapy via T-piece on diaphragmatic function in tracheostomized patients with prolonged weaning from mechanical ventilation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Diaphragmatic function

    Differences in diaphragmatic function between high flow oxygen therapy and T-piece will be assessed by diaphragm excursion measurement (in cm) using bedside ultrasound examination of the diaphragm.

    30 minutes

  • Diaphragmatic thickening fraction

    Differences in diaphragmatic thickening fraction between high flow oxygen therapy and T-piece will be assessed using bedside ultrasound examination of the diaphragm thickness of diaphragmatic zone of apposition at end-inspiration and end-expiration and subsequent calculation of the difference between end-inspiratory and end-expiratory thickness divided by end-expiratory thickness.

    30 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Tidal volume

    30 minutes

  • Respiratory frequence

    30 minutes
