NCT05676502

Brief Summary

The aim of this controlled randomized crossover study is to compare the physiological effects of nasal high flow therapy (NHF) with 2 different nasal cannulas in patients with exacerbated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (ECOPD) and chronic respiratory failure. 20 patients will be treated with NHF therapy (Airvo, Fisher\&Paykel Healthcare, NZ) during wakefulness. Physiological measuremends will take place over three perdiods (visits). One period without NHF, one with NHF via standard cannula (Optiflow M) and one with asymmetrical cannula (Optiflow Duet) in randomised order.
