3CPO The Study Trial Design Multicentre national randomised controlled trial Setting: Emergency Department Prospective ‘open-label’ trial Three treatment interventions in a 1:1:1 randomisation: ‘standard’ oxygen therapy, CPAP or NIPPV
3CPO The Study Inclusion Criteria Patients older than 16 years of age Signs and symptoms consistent with acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema as the principal clinical complaint: acute dyspnoea and bilateral crackles on chest auscultation Chest radiograph confirming the diagnosis of acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema: typical features of interstitial oedema present Arterial blood gas analysis with a pH of 45 nmol/L) Respiratory rate of >20 breaths per minute
3CPO The Study Severely altered consciousness (unconscious or responding to pain only) Need for immediate lifesaving intervention Patients requiring thrombolysis or percutaneous coronary intervention for acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction A clear alternative primary diagnosis An inability to provide informed consent at any time within the trial period Previous inclusion in the 3CPO study Exclusion Criteria
3CPO The Study Written informed consent If unable to give written consent: –witnessed verbal consent –relatives’ assent is obtained. Verbal patient consent is witnessed in writing by a second individual involved in the patient’s clinical care. Subsequent written consent is obtained as soon as possible prior to the patient’s data being used in the trial and normally within one week of recruitment. MREC/02/0/74 Consent
3CPO The Study Intervention Randomised (1:1:1) to: –Standard oxygen therapy (by facial mask) –CPAP (5 cmH 2 O up titrated to a maximum of 15 cmH 2 O) –NIPPV (8/4 cmH 2 O up titrated to a maximum of 20/10 cmH 2 O) Inhaled oxygen of 60% Attending physicians were encouraged to use nitrate and diuretic therapy Opiate therapy was administered at the discretion of the treating physician
3CPO The Study Power Calculation Randomisation of 400 patients per group. Intention-to-treat analysis. Co-primary end-point of mortality between standard oxygen therapy and non-invasive ventilation (CPAP or NIPPV). 80% Power at P<0.05, to detect a difference of 6% in mortality assuming a mortality of 15%. Co-primary end-point of mortality or intubation between CPAP and NIPPV 80% Power at P<0.05, to detect a difference of 7% in mortality and intubation rate assuming an event rate of 18%.
