High-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) is increasingly used instead of standard oxygen therapy in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). HFOT uses a nasal cannula to deliver high flows of up to 70 ...

Three main methods of noninvasive support are used in the acute care setting: a high flow of gas delivered through a large-bore nonocclusive nasal cannula (i.e., high-flow nasal cannula), continuous ...

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 ...

Oxygen supplementation is crucial for awake tracheal intubation (ATI) using a flexible bronchoscope in patients with an anticipated difficult airway. However, the modality of optimal oxygen delivery ...

Use of high-flow oxygen was associated with less of a need for mechanical ventilation and a shorter time to recovery compared with conventional oxygen therapy in patients with severe COVID-19, a ...

Neonatal endotracheal intubation often involves more than one attempt, and oxygen desaturation is common. It is unclear whether nasal high-flow therapy, which extends the time to desaturation during ...
