High flow nasal canula
High-Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) Treatment is a non-invasive respiratory support therapy that delivers warm, humidified, oxygen-enriched air to patients, usually using a nasal cannula. Typically used in spontaneously breathing patients who typically require oxygen at higher flow rates. It can provide respiratory support of patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure and prevent subsequent intubation when used correctly. This greatly enhances patient comfort and ease of use.
More Details
Oxygen therapy is recommended for all severe and critical COVID-19 patients, with low doses ranging from 1-2 L/min in children and starting at 5 L/min in adults with nasal cannula, moderate flow rates for use with venturi mask (6-10 L/min); or higher flow rates (10-15 L/min) using a mask with reservoir bag. In addition, oxygen can be delivered at higher flow rates and in higher concentrations, using high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) devices, non-invasive ventilation (NIV) and invasive ventilation devices.”
