Article Synopsis
- Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are a significant issue after esophagectomy, affecting up to 40% of patients despite advances in surgical care.
- This study aims to determine if using high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) right after extubation can lower PPC rates compared to standard oxygen therapy.
- The research involves 320 participants who will be randomly assigned to either HFNC or standard therapy post-surgery, with various complications being tracked to assess the effectiveness of each approach.
