There is sparse information concerning the timing of HFNC on patient outcomes such as incidence of adverse events during hospitalization, ICU stay, and post-ICU stay. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of a het...

متن کاملHigh Flow Nasal Cannula oxygenation for adult patients in the ICU: a literature review.
Oxygenation using High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) was initially described in neonatal medicine, but, gradually, its use has extended to adult patients. The efficacy of the device has been linked to higher flows of oxygen delivered to the patients, air tract humidification, alveolar recruitment through a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) effect, prevention of nasopharyngeal collapse, and de...
متن کاملA nasal cannula can be used to treat obstructive sleep apnea.
RATIONALE Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is due to upper airway obstruction and is associated with increased morbidity. Although continuous positive airway pressure efficaciously treats obstructive apneas and hypopneas, treatment is impeded by low adherence rates. OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy on obstructive sleep apnea of a minimally intrusive method for delivering warm and humidified ...
