Non-invasive Ventilation
for Cancer Patients with Respiratory Failure
This randomized clinical trial studies how well non-invasive ventilation works in reducing the need for intubation, or placement of a tube in the windpipe, in patients with cancer and respiratory failure. Respiratory failure is a condition in which not enough oxygen passes from the lungs to the blood, and is a common cause of admission to the emergency room in patients with hematological and solid tumor patients. Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is a method of delivering oxygen using a mask. It is not yet known whether NIPPV is better at improving the amount of oxygen in the blood, reducing shortness of breath, and the need for intubation than standard high flow oxygen (a tube with 2 prongs placed in the nostrils) in patients with cancer and respiratory failure.
