HFNC (50lmp) for acute hypox resp failure (vs face mask vs NIV) -P/F < 300, 10lpm >15min

Clinical Question

In patients with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure, does high-flow
oxygen through nasal cannula, compared with standard oxygen delivered
through a facemask or non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation, prevent
intubation?

Critical Appraisal

Key findings

HFNC non-inferior to face mask or NIV. HFNC > dec ICU 7 90d mort, improves comfort
