Brief Summary

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

This study will evaluate the ability of a new High Velocity Nasal Insufflation \[HVNI\] device design to effect ventilation and related physiological responses relative to the current HVNI device design.

Detailed Description

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

The objective of this study is to evaluate the ability of a new HVNI device to improve ventilation, dyspnea, and related physiological responses relative to the conventional Precision Flow device design, with which there are published clinical outcomes data. It is hypothesized that the new HVNI device design (V2.0) will be comparable at relieving patient dyspnea when compared to the conventional HVNI device design (Precision Flow).

Blinding Strategy

NONE

This trial is non-blinded by necessity, as there are distinct differences in size and appearance between the new and current HVNI device designs.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Conventional HVNI First, Then New HVNI Second (Randomized)

The purpose of this intervention is to evaluate the efficacy of the conventional HVNI device design (Precision Flow) to provide targeted relief of dyspnea. The purpose of this intervention is to evaluate the efficacy of a new HVNI device design (V2.0) to provide targeted relief of dyspnea.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Conventional Precision Flow

Intervention Type DEVICE

Patients will be placed on HVNI therapy using Vapotherm's conventional HVNI device design (Precision Flow). Patients will receive HVNI therapy through an appropriately-fitted Prosoft dual-pronged nasal cannula. Physiologic and ventilation parameters will be recorded.

HVNI HVT2.0 Device

Intervention Type DEVICE

Patients will be placed on HVNI therapy using Vapotherm's new HVNI device design (V2.0). Patients will receive HVNI therapy through an appropriately-fitted Prosoft dual-pronged nasal cannula. Physiologic and ventilation parameters will be recorded.

New HVNI First, Then Conventional HVNI Second (Randomized)
