Interest of Non Invasive Ventilation Versus Oxygen During the Intial Managment of Infant With Bronchiolitis

The purpose of the study is to evaluate, in a prospective way, the clinical, the manometric an gazometric benefit of non-invasive ventilation (VNI), (INFANTFLOW [EME, Brighton, England]) during bronchiolitis of the infant compared to a conventional managment.

About this study

  • Experimental plan: The infants (0 to 6 month) admitted in pediatric intesive care unit for respiratory distress with bronchiolitis but not requiring mechanical ventilation are randomized in two groups: group "A" is treated with a non-invasive ventilation device(Infantflow) during 6 hours, group "B" is treated conventionally by inhalation of a Air/O2 mixture during 6 hours.
  • Outcome: Primary outcome: clinical score of respiratory distress at H0 and H6. Secondary outcome: respiratory and cardiac frequency, average blood pressure. Manometric: Variation of esophageal pressure at H0, H6. Gasometric: Minimal FiO2 necessary to reach an oxygen saturation between 94 and 98%, transcutaneus PCO2, PaO2/FiO2
  • Analyze results: Intention to treat analysis after having checked the randomization by comparing clinical gravity in the two arms (clinical score).
  • Calendar of the study: October 2006 at April 2008
  • Follow-up of the patients: the study proceeds during the hospitalization of the infants during 6 hours and will not impose any specific follow-up.

Treatment and study plan

Infantflow [EME, Brighton, England]

Device

Primary outcomes

  1. Clinical score of respiratory distress at base line (H0) and at 6 hours (H6)

  2. after the begining of the procedure.

  3. The respiratory distress was evaluated with the modified Woods Clinical Asthma

  4. Score (m-WCAS) [Hollman G, Shen G, Zeng L, et al. Crit Care Med 1998; 26:1731-1736]

Secondary outcomes

  1. Clinical items: respiratory and cardiac rate, average blood pressure at H0 and H6.

  2. Manometric: Variation of esophageal pressure at H0 and H6.

  3. Gasometric: Minimal FiO2 necessary to reach an oxygen saturation between 94

  4. and 98%, transcutanée PCO2, PaO2/FiO2
