Comparison of CPAP and HFNC in Management of Bronchiolitis in Infants and Young Children [PDF]
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been used in infants with bronchiolitis for decades. Recently, high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy was introduced We conducted a retrospective study of treatment with CPAP vs. HFNC between 2013 and 2015, comparing the development in respiratory rate, fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) and heart rate ...

High Flow Oxygen Therapy – Risks and Rewards
Introduction High Flow Oxygen Therapy via Nasal Cannula (HFNC) has documented advantages over conventional oxygen therapy (COT). It’s been noted to improve the survival rate among patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, and potentially ...

Expanding the utility of the ROX index among patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.
BackgroundDelaying intubation in patients who fail high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) may result in increased mortality. The ROX index has been validated to predict HFNC failure among pneumonia patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), but ...
