Noninvasive Ventilation & High Flow Oxygen Therapy

High flow therapy (HFT) delivers:

Appropriate flow demand
Wide range of FiO₂
Small PEEP effect
CO₂ washout
Heated humidification

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) support delivers:

Appropriate noninvasive ventilatory support
Adjustable IPAP (Pressure Support) levels
Adjustable EPAP (PEEP) levels
Back-up rate
Wide range of FiO₂
Patient monitored parameters and alarms
The same physiological effect as invasive mechanical ventilation

Determine the optimal respiratory technique for optimal care

Managing patients in respiratory failure - from the very mild to the very severe – presents a range of options to consider. Clinicians can utilize them based upon the need for oxygenation support alone, or the need for both oxygenation support and ventilation support. HFT provides a high level of oxygenation support, but only limited and somewhat variable ventilation support. NIV provides both oxygenation support and ventilation support. Other factors such as the patient interface and device performance can be considerations in determining when to use a particular modality, once oxygenation and ventilatory needs are addressed.

Timely transition of therapies is important - whether escalation or de-escalation of therapy - or providing HFT between NIV sessions. Although the ability to escalate therapy is important, preventing the delay of intubation in patients who need invasive mechanical ventilation requires understanding and recognition of predictors of failure.

In a recent non-inferiority study,

87%

                of patients who were placed on
                NIV after failing on HFT avoided
                intubation.³
