Background Adequate respiratory support can improve clinical outcomes in patients who are
ready for weaning from a ventilator. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of respiratory …

Purpose: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled
trials (RCTs) to evaluate the effect of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) on reintubation in …

Background Studies suggest that high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and non-invasive
ventilation (NIV) can prevent reintubation in critically ill patients with a low risk of extubation …

Purpose High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy was noninferior to noninvasive
ventilation (NIV) for preventing reintubation in a heterogeneous population at high-risk for …

Background The effects of high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) on adult patients after extubation
remain controversial. We aimed to further determine the effectiveness of HFNC in …

Objectives A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to compare the effects of
high-flow nasal oxygen cannula (HFNC) and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in extubated …

Background Mechanical ventilation is commonly used for managing respiratory failure in
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, but weaning patients off ventilator …

Background Liberation and extubation are important for patients supported by mechanical
ventilation. Extubation success is related to the duration of an intensive care unit (ICU) stay …

Background High-flow nasal oxygen cannula (HFNC) and noninvasive mechanical
ventilation (NIV) can prevent reintubation in critically ill patients. However, their efficacy in …

Many intensive care unit patients who undergo endotracheal extubation experience
extubation failure and require reintubation. Because of the high mortality rate associated …
