High-Flow Nasal Cannula and COVID-19: A Clinical Review

Claudia Crimi et al.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, noninvasive respiratory support, particularly high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) treatment, has been commonly used for patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. Despite its reported benefits, concerns about the risk of infection transmission to healthcare workers have led to controversial recommendations from different scientific societies.

Using heated humidified high-flow nasal cannulas for premature infants may result in an underestimated amount of water reaching the airways

Eran Reiner et al.

Summary: This study investigated the conditions leading to excess water formation in heated humified high-flow nasal cannula. The results showed that groups with larger temperature differences collected more water, while groups with smaller temperature differences collected less water. Therefore, appropriate device set-up can prevent the production of excessive water in high-flow nasal cannula devices.

Impact of flow and temperature on non-dyspnoeic dogs' tolerance undergoing high-flow oxygen therapy

C. Harduin et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of gas flow rate and temperature on dogs' tolerance of high-flow nasal oxygen therapy during recovery from anaesthesia. The results showed that different flow rates and temperatures did not significantly affect dogs' tolerance. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings in dyspnoeic dogs.

Physiological responses and perceived comfort to high-flow nasal cannula therapy in awake adults: effects of flow magnitude and temperature

I. Narang et al.

Summary: This study found that increasing HFNC flows did not lead to increased genioglossus muscle activation, but did result in larger negative epiglottic pressure swings. HFNC provided around 7 cmH(2)O positive airway pressure at 60 L/min. Increasing HFNC flow reduced breathing frequency, increased expiratory time, peak inspiratory flow, and discomfort.

Comparison of Actual Performance in the Flow and Fraction of Inspired O2 among Different High-Flow Nasal Cannula Devices: A Bench Study

Yuyan Zhou et al.

Summary: This study evaluated four different HFNC devices and a ventilator with HFNC module, finding variations in flow, FiO(2) accuracy, and performance. AIRVO2 showed superior performance, while TNI softFlow 50, bellavista 1000, and HUMID-BH each had their own strengths in providing sufficient flow support and minimizing risk of insufficient flow support due to accidental compression or blocking of the cannulas. Ventilators with HFNC modules could serve as an alternative to standalone HFNC devices, providing comparable flow and FiO(2) delivery.

Hygrometric Performances of Different High-Flow Nasal Cannula Devices: Bench Evaluation and Clinical Tolerance

Mathieu Delorme et al.

Summary: High-flow nasal cannula devices provide satisfactory humidity output for breathing comfort when used according to manufacturer's recommendations at normal ambient temperature, but significant differences exist between devices which may impact efficacy and clinical tolerance if not used appropriately.
