Nasal High Flow (NHF) is a new therapy that delivers high flows of oxygen mixture through a single nasal cannula – Optiflow™. This enables the effective delivery of up to 100% oxygen, creating a solution for hypoxemic patients with medium to moderate respiratory changes. The Optiflow high-flow nasal cannula provides respiratory support for your patients by delivering heated, humidified air and oxygen at flow rates of up to 60 l/min via the unique Optiflow nasal cannula and supplied by a device such as the Airvo 2 or Airvo 3 high-flow system or MR850 or F&P 950 humidifier system.
This system is designed to work with a wide variety of flow sources, including ventilators and traditional air/oxygen mixers, giving professionals the flexibility of using familiar equipment.
The compatible system’s dual feedback control ensures a consistent temperature and humidity level throughout therapy, with a flow range of up to 70L/min with 21-100% oxygen, while the comfortable, easy-to-place cannula requires minimal effort on the part of practitioners.
Optiflow™ is unrivaled in terms of humidity performance and patient tolerance to treatment.
Mechanisms of action
” Respiratory support (by reducing free space and delivering a positive dynamic air pressure).
” Airway hydration.
” Patient comfort.
” Supplementary oxygen (if necessary).
These mechanisms contribute to a reduced respiratory rate, better oxygenation, reduced carbon dioxide levels and better mucus clearance.
