High-flow nasal cannula therapies for respiratory management in pediatric patients

High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy is a non-invasive form of respiratory support that is rapidly being taken up in pediatric intensive care units (PICU). For infants with bronchiolitis, who are the largest non-elective source of admissions to a PICU, there is some evidence that using HFNC therapy reduces the need for intubation and mechanical ventilation. The aim of this review article is to explore, describe, critique and add to the evidence surrounding the use of HFNC therapy in the pediatric population for the management of respiratory distress.
