Brief Summary:

The aim of the study is to compare, in patients with acute respiratory failure/acute lung injury the efficacy of three different methods of oxygenation to prevent endotracheal intubation :

  1. conventional oxygen therapy (O2 conventional)
  2. high flow nasal oxygen therapy (O2-HFN)
  3. association of high flow nasal oxygen therapy with non invasive positive pressure ventilation (O2-HFN/NPPV).

Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Clinical Effect of the Association of Noninvasive Ventilation and High Flow Nasal Oxygen Therapy in Resuscitation of Patients With Acute Lung Injury. A Randomised Study (FLORALI Study)
Study Start Date : March 2011
Actual Primary Completion Date : July 2013
Actual Study Completion Date : July 2013


Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: O2 conventional : standard low flow therapy
in order to obtain a SpO2>92%
Other: O2 conventional
standard low flow therapy

Experimental: O2-HNF : high flow nasal oxygen therapy
set between 30 to 50 l/min,adjusted in order to obtain a SpO2 >92%.
Device: O2-HFN : high flow nasal oxygen therapy
The patient will receive high flow nasal of humidified oxygen, set between 30 to 50 l/min. The inspired fraction of oxygen (FiO2) will be adjusted in order to obtain a SpO2 >92%.

Experimental: O2-HFN/NPPV
cycling of NIV and O2-HDN
Device: O2-HFN/NPPV : association of high flow nasal oxygen therapy and non invasive positive pressure ventilation
The patient will receive successively in a day NPPV and O2-HFN. The NPPV will be applied with an airway humidification achieved by using a heated humidifier and a facial mask adapted to the morphology of the patient. The settings will be adjusted as follow : an inspiratory pressure between 6 to 14 cmH2O, in order to obtain a tidal volume between 7 to 10 ml/kg of predicted weight, a positive expiratory pressure between 0 to 10 cmH2O in order to obtain a SpO2 >92% with the minimal FiO2.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. To compare the number of patients in each group who require endotracheal intubation with mechanical ventilation [ Time Frame: at day 28 ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. mechanical ventilation-free to day 28 [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
  2. ICU morbidity [ Time Frame: at day 28 ]
