New treatment option for Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure
Official title ROX Index for the Timing of Intubation in Nasal High Flow
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04707729
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Late or delayed intubation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) treated with nasal high flow (NHF) is associated with increased patient mortality. The ROX index has been designed and validated to predict outcome of NFH therapy by identifying those patients with a high risk of NHF failure and those with a high probability of success.
