Nasal Airflow to Modulate Dyspnea in Tracheostomized Patients
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Baseline: patient ventilated through the tracheostomy with initial ventilator settings
Installation of high flow humidified air cannula: Installation of high flow humidified air cannula with inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2) 21%
Nasal air puffs: Nasal air puffs synchronized with the inspiratory time of the ventilator
propeller fan (FAN): Stand-alone fan at the bedside directed toward the face of the patient
Study summary
The hypothesis of the present study is that restoring nasal stimulation alleviates dyspnea and improves respiratory drive. The aim of this study is to compare three non-pharmacological approaches designed to restore nasal stimulation (continuous nasal airflow, nasal sprays, and facial airflow) in tracheotomized patients dependent on mechanical ventilation.
