High Flow Nasal Cannula: What’s the Difference? Conventional preoxygenation is used before a patient is intubated using a nasal cannula or mask and can deliver up to 15 liters of oxygen per minute. This amount of oxygen is much lower than the necessary amount patients with respiratory ...
When a high-flow nasal cannula is used to deliver oxygen, the flow rates are much higher than can be achieved with traditional nasal cannula. This results in a greater delivery of prescribed oxygen into the lungs, and less entrainment of room air. ...
A nasal cannula or face mask is in fluid connection with the outlet of the jet pump. The nasal cannula or face mask includes a fluid conduit terminating at a pair of apertured nostril outlet prongs or face facemask, respectively, for providing the reduced Ocontent gas flow to the patient....
Twenty years ago, Dewan and Bell described their experience with 'high flows' delivered using a regular nasal cannula in patients with chronic obstructive pul- monary disease [4]. Over the past two decades, devices that deliver heated and humidified oxygen at high flows through a nasal cannula ...
Related deformities can be caused by using acannulathat is too large or applying excessive pressure that results in localischemia. In addition, excessive movement due to poor immobilization techniques can cause skin erosion, which may progress toulcerationresulting in loss of the surrounding tissue....

Device and method of use are described in which a housing is configured and coupled to an aerosol generator which delivers aerosol into an oxygen stream transporting both to a patient via a nasal cannula, in a way to minimize condensation at low liters per minute flow rate.Martin Allan ...
