High-Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) therapy delivers warm, humidified oxygen at high flow rates, providing a comfortable and effective form of respiratory support for patients with varying oxygen needs. It is increasingly used in critical care, step-down units, and even in home care with portable devices.
Key Benefits
- Comfort: Gentle nasal delivery with warm, humidified oxygen improves patient tolerance compared to masks.
- Supports Lung Rehabilitation: Helps in recovery from respiratory distress, pneumonia, and post-COVID lung damage.
- Reduces ICU Admissions: Early use can prevent escalation to invasive ventilation in some cases.
Portable HFNC Units
Advances in device design have made HFNC systems portable, enabling oxygen therapy in general wards, long-term care facilities, and even at-home recovery. Portable HFNC units offer flexibility without compromising therapy quality, making them ideal for extended care beyond ICUs.
Clinical Applications
- Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure
- Post-extubation support
- Pre-oxygenation before procedures
- Chronic respiratory conditions requiring high-flow support
