Brief Summary: Patients with COPD exacerbation usually need respiratory support after extubation. Recently, HHHFNC has been used in both adult and neonates with post-extubation respiratory support. Studies indicate that HHHFNC has seminar efficacy compared to non-invasive positive pressure ventilation and superior than conventional oxygen therapy. There are no clinical data of diaphragm electrical activity and cardiopulmonary function for using HHHFNC and UHFOM as post-extubation respiratory support.
Detailed Description: Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the Edi level and cardiopulmonary parameters between heated humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC) versus unheated high-flow oxygen mask (UHFOM) in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with post-extubation respiratory support. This is the first clinical trial to investigate and analysis the variations of cardiopulmonary parameters and Edi level between HHHFNC and UHFOM in adult patients.
