Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate of the prediction factors for the success of Heated and humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HHFNC) in patients with exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: Pre and post- intervention study on 32 patients with COPD exacerbation used HHFNC support. Results: the success rate with HHFNC was 65.6%. In the successful group, vital signs (heart rate, respiratory rate, SpO2 and blood pressure) and arterial blood gas (pH, PaO2, PaO2/FiO2) improved gradually (p<0.001). In the failure group, the pH decreased and PaCO2 increased significantly (p<0.05). Mechanical ventilation parameters (Flow, FiO2) decreased in the successful group and increased in the failure group during study period (p<0.001; p<0.05). PaCO2 with cut-off ≥ 62 mmHg (area under ROC curve, AUC = 0.8247), HACOR with cut-off ≥ 4 (AUC = 0.8636), ROX with cut-off ≥ 7,98 (AUC = 0.8030) provided high sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value. Conclusion: The successful prediction factors for HHFNC were PaCO2, HACOR and ROX at the initiation of the non-invasive ventilation for patients with the acute exacerbation of COPD.
