Study summary

A sub-nasal mask with a skirt that fits the nostrils and with a dedicated port for the nasogastric tube has recently been introduced. This interface has never been compared to nasal-oral masks. We hypothesise that such a sub-nasal mask increases comfort compared to a conventional naso-oral mask. The primary objective is to compare the comfort of the sub-nasal mask with that of a standard naso-oral mask.

Read the detailed description

Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a first-line treatment for many conditions encountered in the ICU. This technique requires training of heath professionals, appropriate equipment, optimisation of ventilator settings and good cooperation from the patient. Indeed, NIV failures lead ton invasive mechanical ventilation, thus increasing morbidity and mortality. These failures are favoured by the patient's poor tolerance to NIV. The success of the treatment depends greatly on the patient's compliance and comfort. The choice of the mask is therefore essential. There are different types of interface, such as the full-face helmet, the face mask, the nasal-oral mask or the nasal mask. The nasal-oral mask rmains the most commonly used interface. Recommendations emphasise the importance of choosing a mask that is the right size and best tolerated by the patient. Despite benefits of NIV, there are a number of potential complications: skin lesions at pressure points, particulaly at the nasal bridge, gastric distension, barotrauma, haemodynamic effects of positive presure ventilation, claustrophobia, anxiety, difficulty in speaking and eating, dry eyes, patient-ventilator asynchrony. Some of these complications depend on the type of mask used. a sub-nasal mask with a skirt that fits the nostrils and a dedicated port for the nasogastric tube has recently been introduced. To our knowledge, this interface has never been compared to commercially avaible nasal-oral masks.

Study population

Adult patients hospitalized in intensive care, continuous monitoring unit or pulmonary intensive care with an indication for NIV.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • exacerbation
  • Hydrostatic acute pulmonary edema
  • Acute Chest Syndrome with Hypercapnia in Sickle Cell Patients
  • Post-extubation, planned in a patient at risk or recovering from extubation failure
  • Hypoventilation-obesity syndrome

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

Formal to NIV among:

  • Indication for orotracheal intubation at the outset
  • Non-cooperative, agitated, opponent of the technique
  • Coma
  • Respiratory exhaustion
  • Shock, severe ventricular arrhythmias, immediate aftermath of cardiac arrest
  • Undrained pneumothorax, blowing chest wound
  • Upper airway obstruction (except sleep apnea, laryngotracheomalacia)
  • Uncontrollable vomiting
  • Upper gastrointestinal bleeding
  • Measure of protection of justice
  • Facial deformity
  • Dying or palliative care patient

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

COPD

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: long-term lung disease that makes it hard to breathe out, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Interventions

  • Devicemask

    patients will be their own comparator. Patients will try both mask for 10 min and then decide which mask they want for the rest of the ventilation

    Also known as: oronasal mask or subnasal mask

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. 1 to 10 self assessment scale

    Comfort will be assessed by a numerical self-assessment scale from 0 to 10.

    Time frame: throughout the study (an average of 10 months)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of subjects who prefer one type of mask over the other

    Time frame: throughout the study (an average of 10 months)

  2. Percentage of leakage volume compared to the tidal leakage volume

    Time frame: throughout the study (an average of 10 months)

  3. Dyspnea

    Time frame: throughout the study (an average of 10 months)

  4. Number of interventions on mask position by nurses during NIV session

    Time frame: throughout the study (an average of 10 months)

  5. Number of side effects

    Time frame: throughout the study (an average of 10 months)

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 18, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
