Lung Volume Changes in Stable Preterm Infants Weaned From Nasal CPAP to High FlowTake-home Points

CHEST Pulmonary
Background: Weaning preterm infants off nasal CPAP (nCPAP) using nasal high-flow therapy has gained popularity. The effects of such a weaning strategy on lung volumes are unclear.

High-flow nasal oxygen therapy [PDF]

BJA Education, 2017
### Key points High-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNOT) is increasingly used as part of both ward-based and critical care management of respiratory failure. Respiratory failure is distressing for patients and treatment modalities currently in use may be associated with discomfort from upper airway drying, tightly fitting facemasks, and resultant ...

Oxygenation laryngoscope vs. nasal standard and nasal high flow oxygenation in a technical simulation of apnoeic oxygenation

BMC Emergency Medicine, 2021
Background Failed airway management is the major contributor for anaesthesia-related morbidity and mortality. Cannot-intubate-cannot-ventilate scenarios are the most critical emergency in airway management, and belong to the worst imaginable scenarios in

Implantable Ionic Memristors Based on Natural Polymer Heterojunctions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We report an implantable natural polymer‐based ionic memristor composed of hyaluronic acid, chitosan, and PDMS. The device achieved 98.94% accuracy in MNIST classification while reducing training time by 36.8% compared with a conventional artificial neural network (ANN).

High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy in infants and children versus other non-invasive ventilation: a review of current knowledge [PDF]

Respiratory distress is the leading cause of hospitalisation in paediatric intensive care units. Non-invasive ventilation can be delivered via continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) or high-flow nasal cannula

Reducing aerosol dispersion by high flow therapy in COVID‐19: High resolution computational fluid dynamics simulations of particle behavior during high velocity nasal insufflation with a simple surgical mask

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, 2020
Objective All respiratory care represents some risk of becoming an aerosol‐generating procedure (AGP) during COVID‐19 patient management. Personal protective equipment (PPE) and environmental control/engineering is advised.
