Summary

The COVID-19 pandemic has become a huge global problem, affecting all spheres of human life, resulting in enormous social, economic consequences and human tragedies. With very decent results of treatment of patients of average severity in the conditions of bed units, the results of treatment of the most severe category - patients of intensive care units who required tracheal intubation remain extremely unsatisfactory. According to different data, mortality in this category of patients reaches 80-90%. However, observational, randomized studies and their meta-analyses have shown high efficiency of high-flow oxygen therapy through nasal cannulas, reaching 50-60%. Some pilot bench studies (on manikins) have shown the advantages of high-flow oxygen therapy over standard oxygen therapy in reducing anatomical dead space and preserving a given inspiratory fraction of oxygen in the laryngeal pharynx of the manikin, but the actual state of the laryngeal pharyngeal gas composition was not studied. Some patients breathe through open mouth that decreases the efficacy oh high flow oxygen through nasal cannula. The aim of the study is to measure the inspiratory (FiO2) and expiratory (FeO2) oxygen fractions and the inspiratory and expiratory carbon dioxide fractions (FiCO2 and FeCO2, respectively) in the hypopharynx of healthy volunteers during high-flow oxygen therapy through nasal cannula and face mask, and during standard oxygen therapy through non-rebreather face mask under different physiological conditions.
