Study Overview
Brief Summary
High Flow Nasal Cannula(HFNC) is a valuable respiratory support technique for adults, children, newborns, and infants. HFNC offers benefits over traditional oxygen therapy in the areas of humidification, oxygenation,CO2 clearance, and reduces respiratory distress. It is necessary to know the predictors of failure to guide the therapy. Data will be collected retrospectively from the medical records and will be analyzed to find the predictors of HFNC failure. Outcomes of HFNC and length of stay will be documented. The primary outcome is to identify the predictors of HFNC failure. The secondary outcomes are: To determine the threshold value of each parameter that is S/F ratio, p-ROX, PRESS score and to assess the outcomes of children on HFNC ( mortality). Hence, the results of this study will help in finding the parameters that will guide HFNC therapy.
