High-flow nasal cannula can be used outside the ICU.
We read with great interest the article recently published in CHEST (July 2015) by Spoletini et al, 1 an excellent narrative review about the mechanisms of action and clinical implications of using heated, humidifi ed highfl ow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygenation systems in adults. In their article, the authors make the recommendation that HFNC use on regular wards should be discouraged, especiall...
متن کاملHigh-Flow Nasal Cannula in a Mixed Adult ICU.
BACKGROUND Humidified, high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) enables mucociliary clearance, accurate oxygen measurement, precise control of flow, and low-level positive airway pressure. 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 oxygen therapy during hypoxemic respiratory failure.
Oxygen therapy remains the first line intervention in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. Several medical devices for oxygen therapy, which range from simple nasal cannula to non-rebreathing face masks, have been used in the management of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.1 The choice of a specific oxygen delivery device is based on the patient’s oxygen requirements in terms of flow and desi...
متن کاملHigh-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy in adults
OBJECTIVE Actively heated, humidified high flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) is a new type of oxygen therapy. Because of its unique physiological effects, the clinical application is becoming more and more popular. This article is to summarize the physiological effects, clinical application and short comings of HFNC. Compared with conventional oxygen therapy, HFNC helps to improve oxygen...
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...
