Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome of the study will be the efficacy of NIV measured by the reduction in PCO2. This will be calculated as the difference between baseline PCO2 and the PCO2 levels recorded at specific time points during the non-invasive ventilation (NIV) session (h2, h4): ?PCO2=Baseline PCO2 (t0) -Endpoint PCO2 (t1, t2). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Endpoints: • Unplanned interventions: The number of unplanned interventions required by caregivers during the NIV session will be documented. • Changes in respiratory and cardiovascular parameters: These parameters will be assessed before the NIV session, immediately after proper setup (5 minutes), and then at hourly intervals (h1, h2, h3, h4): - Respiratory rate (RR) - Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) - Tidal volume (Vt) - Leak rate - Heart rate (HR) - Systolic blood pressure (SBP) - Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) • Respiratory comfort: assessed using a digital visual scale, changes in respiratory comfort will be measured (h0, h2, h4). • Neurological assessment (h0, h2, h4): - Encephalopathy score (Kelly-Matthay scale) - Glasgow Coma Scale - Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) • Patient-reported outcomes (h0, h2, h4): - Borg Dyspnea Scale (BDS) - Verbal Numeric Rating Scale (VNS) for pain assessment • Psychological assessment (h0, h4): - Rapid Clinical Test For delirium (4 AT) - State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) - Spielberger’s trait anxiety inventory - Perceived stress scale (PSS) | — |
