HFNC vs standard oxygen therapy

Treatment failure (escalation of respiratory therapy to NIV, NIPPV or invasive ventilation) Measured up to 28 days · adults in the ICU, requiring respiratory support

HFNC may leads to lower treatment failure (escalation of respiratory therapy to NIV, NIPPV… compared with standard oxygen therapy (low certainty).

HFNC vs NIPPV or NIV

Treatment failure (escalation of respiratory therapy to NIV, NIPPV or invasive ventilation) Measured up to 28 days · adults in the ICU, requiring respiratory support

HFNC showed no clear difference in treatment failure (escalation of respiratory therapy to NIV, NIPPV… compared with NIPPV or NIV (low certainty).

HFNC vs continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)

Treatment failure · respiratory support in term infants (infants ≥ 37 weeks gestational age to the end of the neonatal period (up to 1 month postnatal age))

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings table ‐ High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) changes treatment failure compared with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) (very low certainty).

HFNC vs low flow nasal cannula (LFNC)

Treatment failure · respiratory support in term infants (infants ≥ 37 weeks gestational age to the end of the neonatal period (up to 1 month postnatal age))

Summary of findings table ‐ High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) may leads to lower treatment failure compared with low flow nasal cannula (LFNC) (low certainty).
