Background The dead space washout and provision of some level of positive airway
pressure by nasal high-flow (NHF) cannula could improve the efficiency of ventilation …

High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is a respiratory support technique that delivers a controlled
concentration of oxygen with high flow, heat, and humidity via the nasal pathway. As it has …

Background Hypoxemia is the most frequent complication of fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FB) in
children. Guidelines recommend oxygen supplementation and conventional nasal prongs …

Results: SpO2 measurements in the HFNC group during the procedure were marginally
better compared to the NC group but this failed to reach statistical significance. Also, no …

We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the effect of high‐flow nasal oxygen and
conventional oxygen therapy during procedural sedation amongst adults and children. We …

Background Bronchoscopy is a useful diagnostic and therapeutic tool. However, the clinical
use of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in adults with acute respiratory failure for diagnostic …

To determine the feasibility on maintaining oxygenation of high-flow nasal oxygenation
(HFNO) with bispectral index-guided intravenous anesthesia for nonintubated interventional …

PURPOSE: While the diagnostic bronchoscopy is a safe procedure, bronchoalveolar lavage
(BAL) may cause serious hypoxemia to be followed by the endotracheal intubation. To …

Moderate sedation/analgesia, formerly known as “conscious sedation,” is commonly used
during bronchoscopy for patients' comfort and safety around the world. This is mostly …

BACKGROUND: Hypoxemia is a relatively common complication in stable patients during
fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB). To prevent this complication, high-flow nasal cannula …
