However, facial pressure ulcers appearing during facemask-delivered noninvasive ventilation are a source of NIV failure by interface intolerance.\n\nA Philips facemask (model : AF541 SE Oro-Nasal mask) has the particularity to display two options for its positioning : a usually used "over-the-nose" positioning or an "under-the-nose" positioning that is supposed to reduce the incidence of facial pressure ulcers while keeping in the same time the qualities of a standard facemask.\n\nThe goal of this controlled randomized trial is to test the hypothesis that the "under-the-nose" positioning actually reduces the incidence of facial pressure ulcers, compared to the usually used "over-the-nose" positioning.\n\nResults of this trial should lead to the proposition of a new interface strategy to prevent facial pressure ulcers and therefore to improve the tolerance of NIV via the use of facemasks displaying an "under-the-nose" positioning.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Acute hypercapnic respiratory failure\n* Initiation of NIV\n* Estimated cumulative time of NIV upper than 12 hours for the first 48 hours of hospitalization\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Contraindication for NIV (respiratory arrest, impossibility to fit the mask)\n* Intubated patient\n* Patient with a tracheostomy\n* Post-extubation respiratory failure\n* Patient exhibiting facial ulcers or skin lesions located at the insertion points of the mask before its hospitalization\n* Person declining NIV\n* Pregnancy\n* Dying person'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04102735', 'acronym': 'UNDER PRESSURE', 'briefTitle': 'Under the Nose Face Mask to Prevent Facial Pressure Ulcers During NIV for Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure (AHRF)', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Centre Hospitalier Arras'}, 'officialTitle': 'UNDER the Nose vs. Over the Nose Face Mask to Prevent Facial PRESSURE Ulcers During Face Mask-noninvasive Ventilation for Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2017-02'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Over-the-nose facemask', 'description': 'The AF541 oro-nasal mask is used with the over-the-nose mask cushion.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Over-the-nose facemask']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Under-the-nose facemask', 'description': 'The AF541 oro-nasal mask is used with the under-the-nose mask cushion.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Under-the-nose facemask']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Under-the-nose facemask', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'Patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure that need noninvasive ventilation and are randomized in the experimental group will receive the AF541 facemask used with the under-the-nose cushion.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Under-the-nose facemask']}, {'name': 'Over-the-nose facemask', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'Patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure that need non-invasive ventilation and are randomized in the comparator group will receive the AF541 facemask used with the over-the-nose cushion.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Over-the-nose facemask']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Arras', 'country': 'France', 'facility': 'Centre Hospitalier Arras', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 50.29301, 'lon': 2.78186}}, {'city': 'Lens', 'country': 'France', 'facility': 'Centre Hospitalier Lens', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 50.43302, 'lon': 2.82791}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Malcolm LEMYZE, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Centre Hospitalier Arras'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Centre Hospitalier Arras', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
