Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been a conventional approach; however, it can be associated with patient discomfort and varying success rates. High-velocity nasal insufflation (HVNI) presents an alternative, delivering heated and humidified oxygen at high flow rates, which may improve oxygenation and patient tolerance.\n\nThis study is designed as a prospective, randomized, open-label, parallel-group trial involving 100 adult patients diagnosed with CAP-induced hypoxemic respiratory failure. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either high-volume non-invasive ventilation (HVNI) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV). The primary endpoint is treatment failure within 48 hours post-randomization, characterized by the necessity for endotracheal intubation or mortality. Secondary endpoints encompass changes in arterial blood gas measurements, patient-reported comfort scores, length of ICU stay, and 28-day mortality rates.\n\nBy systematically comparing HVNI and NIV in this patient population, the study seeks to determine whether HVNI offers a viable and potentially superior alternative to traditional NIV methods in managing acute respiratory failure due to CAP.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age ≥ 18 years\n* Clinical and radiographic diagnosis of CAP\n* Respiratory failure using partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂) and fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO₂) is defined by a partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen ratio (PaO₂/FiO₂) ≤ 300 mmHg or a respiratory rate (RR) ≥ 25/min\n* Informed consent obtained\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Hemodynamic instability requiring vasopressors\n* Altered mental status Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS \\< 13)\n* Contraindication to NIV or HVNI (facial trauma, recent upper airway surgery)\n* Do-Not-Intubate (DNI) order'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06996834', 'briefTitle': 'Noninvasive Support Methods for Acute Respiratory Failure of Community-acquired Pneumonia', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Assiut University'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Randomized Controlled Trial of High-Velocity Nasal Insufflation (HVNI) Versus Noninvasive Ventilation (NIV) for Acute Respiratory Failure of Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP).', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '307052025'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV)', 'description': 'Intervention:\n\nParticipants in this arm will receive non-invasive ventilation using bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) delivered via a full-face mask to support ventilation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure due to community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Non-Invasive ventilation (NIV)']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'High velocity nasal insufflation (HVNI)', 'description': 'Intervention:\n\nParticipants in this arm will receive high-velocity nasal insufflation therapy, a type of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy that delivers heated and humidified oxygen at high flow rates to support patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure resulting from community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).', 'interventionNames': ['Device: High Velocity Nasal Insufflation']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Non-Invasive ventilation (NIV)', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['BI-level Positive airway pressure ventilation (BIPAP)'], 'description': 'Participants in this arm will receive noninvasive ventilation using bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) delivered via a full-face mask to support ventilation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure due to CAP.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV)']}, {'name': 'High Velocity Nasal Insufflation', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['High velocity nasal cannula', 'Vapotherm delivery system'], 'description': 'Participants in this arm will receive high-velocity nasal insufflation therapy, a type of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy that delivers heated and humidified oxygen at high flow rates to support patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure resulting from community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).', 'armGroupLabels': ['High velocity nasal insufflation (HVNI)']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '71515', 'city': 'Asyut', 'state': 'Assuit', 'country': 'Egypt', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Ahmad M.
