High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy comprises an air/oxygen blender, an active
humidifier, a single heated circuit, and a nasal cannula. It delivers adequately heated and …

High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy is carried out using an air/oxygen blender,
active humidifier, single heated tube, and nasal cannula. Able to deliver adequately heated …

Conventional oxygen therapy (COT) and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) have been
considered for decades as frontline treatment for acute or chronic respiratory failure …

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of high-flow nasal
cannula oxygen (HFNC) on patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) in comparison with …

BACKGROUND: Beneficial effects of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen on
oxygenation and respiratory parameters have been reported in a small number of subjects …

INTRODUCTION: High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) can deliver heated and humidified gas
(up to 100% oxygen) at a maximum flow of 60 L/min via nasal prongs or cannula. The aim of …

For hypoxemic respiratory failure, the frontline treatment is supplemental oxygen. Since
ARDS was first described, mechanical ventilation via an endotracheal tube (invasive …

Purpose To evaluate the efficiency, safety and outcome of high flow nasal cannula oxygen
(HFNC) in ICU patients with acute respiratory failure. Methods Pilot prospective monocentric …

Oxygen therapy can be delivered using low-flow, intermediate-flow (air entrainment mask),
or high-flow devices. Low/intermediate-flow oxygen devices have several drawbacks that …

Rationale: High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) improves the clinical outcomes of nonintubated
patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). Objectives: To assess the effects of …
