In the data published by Wettstein and colleagues a pharyngeal FiO2 of 0.30 to 0.38 can be measured at a COT flow rate of 2 L/min. However, also FiO2 of 31.11 ± 7.63% during HFOT was measured with higher flow rates and applying an air/oxygen mixture. Higher flow rates might ...

The rate of do-not-intubate order was a significantly higher with HFNC than NIV (43.2% vs. 28.2%; p=0.002). PaO2/FiO2 ratio was lower with NIV (133.5mmHg vs. 172.7; p<0.001) and PaCO2 was higher with NIV (48.9mmHg vs. 38.0; p=0.041) at the baseline. 18.0% of the HFNC cases ...
yet there is a strong lack of evidence supporting its use.Aims: To compare the exercise tolerance and comfort using HFNC or venturi mask (VM) in an incremental exercise test (IET) and on a constant work rate exercise test (CWRET).Methods: Clinically stable COPD patients who require oxygen ...
High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy applied after extubation decreases respiratory rate (A), has no effect on tidal volume (B), it increases PaO2/FiO2 ratio (C), and it did not modify arterial carbon dioxide levels (D), compared to standard oxygen. Horizontal red lines represent ...
(900PT500) and humidifier included in the AIRVOTM2 device maintained a temperature of 37 °C and absolute humidity of 44 mg/L. The rule of flow rate adjustment is similar to CPAP titration guideline30(Fig.2). The initial flow rate was 20 L/minute and FiO2 was maintained at ...

flow rate 50 L/min, FiO250%, oxygen saturation ≥ 95%, and temperature and 37 °C. During endoscopy, the patient’s mouth is kept open because pressure is lower with an open mouth than a closed mouth and 1.7 cm H2O with an open mouth at a flow rate of 50 L/min, which is ...
Second HFNC step (HFNC 2): A 10-minute period with the same FiO2and flow rate as HFNC 1. All measurements were done during the last minute of each step. Collected data General data During each step, blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate (RR), and transcutaneous oxygen saturation (...
When compared to NIPPV, HFNC had no effect on reintubation rate (low certainty), the need for respiratory support (low certainty), or ICU length of stay (low certainty). Compared to HFNC use, skin breakdown was more common with NIPPV use (low certainty). Rationale The desirable effects of...
