In the setting of acute respiratory failure, patients may generate inspiratory flow rates greater than the flow capacity of conventional oxygen devices. Entrainment of room air may occur, diluting the ...

A nasal cannula is a medical device that provides supplemental oxygen therapy to people who have lower oxygen levels. There are two types of nasal cannulas: low flow and high flow. The device has two ...

To measure the intrapharyngeal pressure (IPP) generated by high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) at varying flow rates up to 5 l min −1. We studied 14 infants on HFNC or ...

To compare the feasibility of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) support generated by high flow nasal cannula with conventional CPAP for prevention of reintubation among preterm infants with a ...

Study finds that high-flow nasal oxygen therapy is as effective as traditional noninvasive ventilation and a better alternative (1 Trusted Source High-Flow Nasal Oxygen vs Noninvasive Ventilation in ...

Have any products been US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved for use in neonates to maintain nasal moisture during prolonged use of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) or ...

BACKGROUND: Conflicting recommendations exist on whether high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy should be administered to adult patients in critical care with acute hypoxemic respiratory ...

Treatment with nasal high-flow therapy has efficacy similar to that of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) when used as postextubation support in neonates. The efficacy of high-flow ...

Incorporating nasal high-flow therapy during endotracheal intubation attempts in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) increased the chance of success on the first try, a randomized study found. In ...
