High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) and inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) have been reported to improve oxygenation in children with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), but their roles in the treatment of AHRF remains unknown. The use of HFOV improves oxygenation by increasing lung recruitment. iNO can improve oxygenation in AHRF, but it may have limited efficacy in patients with poor lung inflation. Based on these findings, we hypothesized that the combined treatment of HFOV and inhalation of low-dose NO would improve oxygenation and survival in children with severe AHRF compared with children treated with conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) or either treatment alone.
