The Effects of Transnasal Humidified Rapid Insufflation Ventilator Exchange (THRIVE) on the Oxygenation in Pediatric Patients Under Tubeless Airway Surgery - a Physiologic Study

Transnasal High-flow rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) has been shown to benefit oxygenation, ventilation and upper airway patency in a range of clinical scenarios, however its use in spontaneously breathing pediatric patients undergoing tubeless airway surgery has not been described. This is a physiologic study that evaluates the feasibility of THRIVE during pediatric airway surgery under self-respiration.
