Summary

Cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) is a common medical emergency and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in addition to conventional medical treatment might be beneficial for patients with CPE.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • CPE confirmed radiologically and/or clinically
  • Severe acute respiratory failure (partial arterial oxygen (PaO2)/Fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) less than 250)
  • Dyspnea of sudden onset with respiratory
  • Systolic blood pressure < 180 mmHg

Exclusion Criteria

  • Immediate need for endotracheal intubation:
  • Severe sensorial impairment
  • Shock
  • Ventricular arrhythmias,
  • Life-threatening hypoxia (SpO2 [oxygen saturation as indicated by pulse oximetry] less than 80% with oxygen)
  • Acute myocardial infarction necessitating thrombolysis
  • Cardiac or respiratory arrest
  • Severe chronic renal failure
  • Pneumothorax.
  • Contraindication of non invasive ventilation (NIV)
