Article Synopsis
- High-flow nasal cannula (HFNO) can help COVID-19 patients with respiratory failure, but it may dilute oxygen delivery. The study assessed different mask types' effects on oxygen saturation (SPO) when used with HFNO.
- In a study of 40 patients, using masks like N95 and nonrebreather (NRB) with oxygen showed significant improvements in oxygen levels and lower respiratory rates compared to other masks.
- Overall, the study suggests that N95 and NRB masks with oxygen are more effective for improving oxygenation in COVID-19 patients using HFNO than surgical masks or NRB without oxygen.
We report the case of a man in his late 30s who presented with a history of breathlessness and cough with haemoptysis. Complete blood counts revealed pancytopenia. High-resolution CT showed diffuse bilateral ground glass opacities.
