Diaphragmatic Ultrasound to Predict the Therapeutic Effect of High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy
269 participantsStarted 2024-04-01
Plain-language summary
Follow-up was conducted for every patient requiring high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy in district 1 of the Intensive Care Department of Chenzhou NO.1 People's Hospital. Patients who met the inclusion criteria but did not meet the exclusion criteria were included for observation. Respiratory parameters, diaphragmatic activity, and variation rate of diaphragmatic thickness were recorded at the beginning of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy, 1 hour after treatment, 3 hours after treatment, 6 hours after treatment, 9 hours after treatment, and 12 hours after treatment. Throughout the procedure, a panel of experts assessed whether the patient needed endotracheal intubation; If yes, the study was terminated; if no, high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy was continued, and observation and evaluation were continued until the end point of the study (12 hours after treatment). If patients or their family members do not want to continue to participate in the study during the study, they will be considered as withdrawal. If patients suffer from sudden malignant arrhythmia or cardiac arrest during the study, resulting in death or transfer to other hospitals or other departments during the study, patients will be excluded. Data from dropped and excluded patients were not included in the final statistical analysis. After the data of 269 patients were collected, the study was concluded, and the results and conclusions were derived by statistical analysis.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
