Impact of High Flow Therapy on Complications Related to Airway Stenting

Impact of High Flow Therapy Through Nasal Cannula on Complications Related to Airway Stenting: a Prospective, Multicentric, Randomized-controlled Trial

• Status: Unknown
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 30 (estimated)
• Sponsor: Cardarelli Hospital · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The application of HFNC therapy in patients with airway stent, improving both humidification and clearance of the airway secretion, could potentially reduce the risk of mucoid impaction, respiratory infections and granulation. HFNC therapy could be superior to nebulization of normal saline (usual care) in order to keep the stent cleaned, reducing, by inference, the risk of complications, as defined above.

Conditions

• Airway Obstruction
• Respiratory Infection
• Mucus; Plug

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	High flow nasal cannula	home treatment with HFNC after airway stent placement both for malignant and benignant central airway obstruction
DEVICE	nebulized normal saline	home treatment with nebulized normal saline after airway stent placement both for malignant and benignant central airway obstruction
