Acute Viral Bronchitis, Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure, Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure
Conditions
Brief summary
The study compares oxygen and NHF in patients with acute viral illness. The duration will be 72h. After them physiological parameters and the outcome will be evaluated.
Interventions
COT describes the application of low-flow oxygen in any way (Hudson mask, nasal prongs,...).
F is combination of room air supplemented with oxygen can be better patients. This gas mixture will be provided to the patient with a specialized nasal prong.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Rox index | 72 hours | (SpO2/FiO2)/RR = index without a unit, mean Rox-index in the two groups, comparison between the groups (significant differences), physiological parameter, to assess differences between the two groups |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| paCO2 in mmHg | 72 hours | physiological parameter, to assess differences between the two groups |
| pH | 72 hours | physiological parameter, to assess differences between the two groups |
| escalation of therapy | 72 hours | use of noninvasive ventilation, intubation, to assess differences between the two groups |
| paO2 in mmHg | 72 hours | physiological parameter, to assess differences between the two groups |
