High-Flow Oxygen Therapy Weaning Protocols for Respiratory Failure
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- You have acute respiratory failure (your lungs aren't getting enough oxygen on their own)
- You've been receiving high-flow nasal therapy for at least 24 hours
- You don't have a tracheostomy (breathing tube in your throat) or recently had a breathing tube removed
- Your blood pH and carbon dioxide levels are within acceptable ranges (no severe respiratory acidosis)

This study tests a more advanced way to monitor oxygen levels and deliver oxygen therapy at home for people with chronic lung or heart conditions who have acute breathing problems. It aims to see if this approach improves care and quality of life.
This study compares different non-invasive ways to help you breathe (using a mask or high-flow nasal oxygen) to see which works better for people with low oxygen levels. It aims to improve oxygen levels and avoid the need for a breathing tube.
This trial tests a step-by-step plan to safely reduce oxygen support in adults who have been using a high-flow nasal cannula for breathing problems. The goal is to find the best way to wean patients off oxygen when they are stable, which might help them recover faster.
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 tests whether high-flow oxygen delivered through the nose, combined with non-invasive breathing support (a mask that helps you breathe without a tube down your throat), can help patients with sudden severe breathing problems. The goal is to improve oxygen levels and avoid the need for a breathing tube.
This study helps doctors predict which patients receiving high-flow oxygen through a nasal tube will need additional breathing support. Researchers use blood tests and clinical information to identify who might need a ventilator, allowing earlier interventions if needed.
