No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Humidified High Flow Nasal Cannula (HHFNC) is a new modality of respiratory support for children with respiratory failure. Despite its extensive use in pediatric and adult population, the exact mechanism of work of HHFNC is not fully explained.The objective of the investigators' research project is to determine the relationship between the amount of airway pressure that can be delivered at specific flow levels of HHFNC. This information will allow the investigators to use HHFNC in a much more informed and safe manner.
