High-Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy in Patients With COVID-19: Predictive Response Factors.

Background: COVID-19 pneumonia has been responsible for many ICU patients' admissions with hypoxemic respiratory failure, and oxygen therapy is one of the pillars of its treatment. The current pandemic scenario has limited the availability of ICU beds and access to invasive ventilation equipment. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) can reduce the need for orotracheal intubation compared with conventional oxygen therapy, providing better results than noninvasive respiratory support.
