Interventions

  • Noninvasive ventilation alternating with high flow nasal cannula — DEVICE
    A total of 24 hours of prophylactic respiratory support will be provided using NIV alternating with HFNC with total NIV usage of 16 hours and HFNC usage of 8 hours.
  • High flow nasal cannula — DEVICE
    A total of 24 hours of prophylactic respiratory support will be provided using HFNC alone.

Study Details

Around 20% of the obese patients with higher body mass index (BMI) who are taken off the breathing tube and breathing machine (ventilator) end up needing it back to support breathing. The re-application of breathing tube is associated with poor outcomes, including high risk of pneumonia, longer hospital stays, and death. The purpose of this study is to assess if prophylactic use of noninvasive breathing support after removing the breathing tube lowers the chance of needing the breathing tube again.

Arms

  • Experimental: Intervention Group (NIV with HFNC)
    Patients randomized to the intervention group will receive NIV alternating with HFNC for 24 hours after extubation
  • Active Comparator: Control Group (HFNC alone)
    Patients randomized to the intervention group will receive HFNC only for 24 hours after extubation

Primary Outcome Measure

Treatment failure defined by use of rescue respiratory support for acute respiratory failure in the first 72 hours after planned extubation [ Time Frame: 72 hours ]
