Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation of oxygen therapy through HFNC with different currents, in improving the respiratory symptoms of patients with COPD in Masih Daneshvari Hospital.
Design
The present study is a clinical trial with three intervention groups, with parallel and one-way blind groups, randomized and with a sample size of 30 patients.
Settings and conduct
This study is performed as a clinical trial in patients with COPD referred to Masih Daneshvari Hospital in Tehran who need to be hospitalized and receive respiratory support. The collected data are real and experimental. Based on the objectives and hypotheses of this study, the clinical conditions and parameters obtained from the analysis of blood gases and spirometry of patients after receiving high-current conductive oxygen through the nasal cannula will be examined. Randomization is done using codes assigned to each patient and based on the file number. For the treatment of any possible complication, the main therapist has knowledge of the groups. Other groups kept blind include the researcher analyzing the data.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Signing a written consent form, no intubation, hypoxemic respiratory distress
Intervention groups
Patients are divided into 3 groups according to the opinion of the therapist with different flows of 30, 40, and 60 liters per minute. The air will be transferred to the patient through the nasal cannula and the patient will be taught how to breathe properly before starting oxygen therapy. Except for FiO2, the other settings of the high flow device are set equally for all three groups, and the air temperature is set at 34 ° C to ensure proper humidity to the patient's inhaled air.
Main outcome variables
Arterial blood gas analysis
