In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Chest trauma is common in traumatology. Its management is based on ventilatory therapies, among which non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is commonly used. Some studies have shown the benefit of this therapy in hypoxemic patients, avoiding intubation, reducing length of stay and healthcare costs, and even reducing mortality. However, these studies are old and underpowered. High flow oxygen therapy (HFO), which is frequently used in everyday practice, has only one study in chest trauma. There is still a lack of data to really understand the effects of these techniques on the injured lung after trauma. Therefore, the investigators want to do a NIV or HFO session and directly assess the effects on participants' lungs by doing a CT at the end of the session. This is a procedure carried out within five days of the initial trauma and consists of either a 10-minute session of non-invasive ventilat
