Helmet continuous positive airway pressure versus high-flow nasal cannula in COVID-19: a pragmatic randomized clinical trial (COVID HELMET)
Oxygen delivery by helmet continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a feasible option. It enables a higher positive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). We plan to perform an investigator-initiated, pragmatic, randomized trial at an intermediate-level COVID-19 cohort ward in Helsingborg Hospital in Sweden. Helmet CPAP enables a higher positive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) It could have important implications during the current COVID-19 epidemic.
