Comparing four ways to stop high-flow oxygen therapy in breathing failure
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests four different methods to safely take patients off a high-flow oxygen device (HVNI) after they have improved from low oxygen levels. The goal is to find the best approach to help you breathe on your own again.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You are getting breathing support through a high-flow nasal device (HVNI) because your oxygen levels were too low
- Your doctors have decided you are ready to stop this support based on standard weaning guidelines
- You do not have major face or burn injuries
- You do not usually use a breathing mask (NIV) at home for long-term problems
- You do not have a tracheotomy or other upper airway issues

This trial tests different flow rates for a high-flow nasal cannula (a device that delivers warm, moist oxygen) after a breathing tube is removed. It aims to find the best setting for patients moving from a ventilator to breathing on their own.
This trial compares three ways of giving extra oxygen to people with low blood oxygen levels: a face mask with continuous pressure, a noninvasive ventilator, or high-flow oxygen through the nose. The goal is to see which method helps people avoid needing a breathing tube.
This trial is testing a way to safely reduce high-flow oxygen therapy for patients in the ICU who have low oxygen levels. It might help find the right time to stop this treatment.
This trial compares two different approaches to gradually reducing high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (a breathing support treatment delivered through your nose) in patients with acute respiratory failure. The goal is to find the best way to safely stop this treatment and transition you to breathing on your own.
This trial tests whether a special type of high-flow nasal therapy can help children come off a breathing machine (ventilator) more successfully. It compares standard care with this extra support to find what works best for kids ages 2 months to 13 years.
This trial compares two ways to help people with severe breathing failure: high-flow oxygen and non-invasive ventilation (a mask that pushes air into your lungs). The goal is to see which treatment works better for patients in the ICU who have too much carbon dioxide in their blood.
