Brief Summary

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

Observational and randomized trials have demonstrated the high effectiveness of non-invasive helmet ventilatory support, demonstrating a reduction in intubation rate mortality compared with high-flow and standard oxygen therapy. Some pilot physiological studies have shown physiological benefits of helmets compared to the oronasal mask for non-invasive ventilation. The purpose of the study is to compare markers of patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI), patient's comfort, work of breathing, gas exchange, and hemodynamics in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) during non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in continuous positive pressure (CPAP) mode during an oronasal mask ventilation or a combination of a helmet with high-flow oxygenation as an air flow generator.

Detailed Description

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

In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel coronavirus emerged in Wuhan, China and rapidly spread worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak a pandemic on March 11th, 2020. The clinical disease (COVID-19) results in critical illness in about 5% of patients with predominant acute respiratory failure. Observational and randomized trials have demonstrated the high effectiveness of non-invasive helmet ventilatory support, demonstrating a reduction in intubation rate mortality compared with high-flow and standard oxygen therapy. Some pilot physiological studies have shown physiological benefits of helmets compared to the oronasal mask for non-invasive ventilation.

The purpose of the study is to compare markers of patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) (measuring esophageal pressure, transpulmonary pressure during inspiration and expiration), the patient's work of breathing (assessment of accessory muscles work) patient's comfort by visual-analog scale, gas exchange (by PaO2/FiO2 and Respiration Oxygenation Index (ROX-index), and hemodynamics in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) during non-invasive pulmonary ventilation (NIV) in continuous positive pressure (CPAP) mode during an oronasal mask ventilation or a combination of a helmet with high-flow oxygenation as an air flow generator.
