Conventionally, oxygen is given at 4 to 6 L/min through nasal cannula for supplementation of oxygen. The FiO2 achieved through this can be up to 0.4. Flows more than this can cause dryness to the nasal mucosa without much increase in the FiO2. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) uses flow up to 60 L/min.

Clinical Applications of High-Flow Nasal Cannula in Obstructive Lung Diseases
High-flow nasal therapy (HFNT) supplies a heated and humidified mixture of air and oxygen at flows of up to 60 L/min. HFNT appears to provide several benefits and is becoming an alternative to deliver respiratory support in a variety of clinical ...

Does Increasing Flow to a High-flow Nasal Cannula Affect Mean Airway Pressure in a Pediatric In Vitro Model? [PDF]
Introduction: High flow nasal cannulas (HFNC) are an oxygen supply device that has become increasingly popular. This high flow therapy was initially utilized in the neonatal populations for treatment of conditions such as bronchiolitis and respiratory ...

High-Flow Nasal Cannula in Neonates [PDF]
Current practice in neonatology is directed toward the preference of noninvasive ventilation and limitation of oxygen exposure. Early use of nasal CPAP either immediately or after surfactant administration (INSURE strategy: intubation, surfactant, extubation) has thus been strongly ...

Mechanisms of nasal high flow therapy in newborns [PDF]
In newborns, it is unclear how nasal high flow (NHF) generates positive airway pressure. In addition, the reported benefits of NHF such as reduction in work of breathing may be independent of airway pressure. The authors hypothesized that during NHF the area of leak and the flow determine airway pressure and that NHF can reduce the required minute ...

High Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy for Improving Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Case Report [PDF]
Although continuous positive airway pressure is the treatment of choice for obstructive sleep apnea, its compliance is low. Therefore, alternative therapeutic strategies are often required.

Nasal high flow reduces dead space [PDF]
Recent studies show that nasal high flow (NHF) therapy can support ventilation in patients with acute or chronic respiratory disorders. Clearance of dead space has been suggested as being the key mechanism of respiratory support with NHF therapy. The hypothesis of this study was that NHF in a dose-dependent manner can clear dead space of the upper ...
