External Nasal Dilator and Oxygen Therapy in Respiratory Failure

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Acute Respiratory Failure

In brief

Acute respiratory failure secondary to bronchiolitis and asthma is one of the most common diagnoses in children admitted to pediatric intensive care unit. Objectives: The primary outcome of the study is to compare the respiratory parameters between patients on HFNC and HFNC with ENDs. Methods: This is a prospective randomized controlled trial. All children admitted to Loma Linda University Children's Hospital due to acute respiratory failure secondary to bronchiolitis and asthma are eligible for inclusion in the study. Multiple respiratory parameters will be collected as part of the study. The investigators anticipate that use of END will have a positive impact on the respiratory status of children with acute respiratory failure. Appropriate statistical analysis of the data will occur after the data has been de-identified.
