Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of early application of nasal high flow oxygen therapy after pulmonary lobectomy on the incidence of postoperative hypoxemia

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

High-flow nasal cannula oxygen (HFNCO) treatment has been showed to have several clinical advantages compared with conventional oxygen therapy. Currently, no reports have described the effects of HFNCO in postoperative patients after thoracic surgery. The primary objective of this study is to determine the incidence of postoperative hypoxemia (defined as a PaO2/FiO2 ratio \<300) in patients with lung cancer after pulmonary lobectomy.

In the postoperative period after extubation, patients will be randomly assigned to either:

1. standard oxygen therapy group (control group) or
2. HFNCO group (study group).

In the control group, patients will receive oxygen treatment by means of a conventional face mask, with a level of fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) set to maintain peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) = 92% - 98%. Patients in the study group will be given HFNCO treatment with a gas flow level = 50 L/min and a FiO2 set to maintain peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) = 92% - 98%. After 48 hours from study entry, all patients will be evaluated for possible interruption of oxygen treatment on the basis of their clinical conditions.
