With high flows, modest PEEP, and effective dead-space washout, HFNC can improve oxygenation and decrease work of breathing while preserving the ability to talk, cough, eat, and interact with staff and family. The RENOVATE trial set out to answer a ...
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) refers to respiratory support provided without endotracheal intubation. The most common modalities include continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP), and high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC). These therapies aim to improve oxygenation, reduce the work ...
Background: Hypoxemia is a commonly encountered adverse event during rapid sequence intubation (RSI) in the ED. Critically ill patients in the ED often have a lack of physiologic reserve, decreased cardiac output, increased shunting, and reduced pulmonary reserves. Therefore, a ...
Background: Respiratory support is a common intervention in pediatric ICUs and can include HFNC and CPAP/BPAP to avoid invasive mechanical ventilation. HFNC has become more popular due to its ease of use, perceived patient comfort, and the ability to discharge ...
Background: Oxygen therapy is frequently used in the emergency department for the treatment of hypoxia and respiratory failure and can be delivered in a variety of ways. Conventional oxygen therapy (COT) via nasal cannula is often a first line treatment, ...
