    Effectiveness of oxygenation of high-flow cannulas to prevent mechanical intubation in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in COVID-19 patients in the intensive care unit
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-11-14) Gallegos Romaní, Flor De María; Cárdenas de Fernández, María Hilda
    Of the 10 articles reviewed, 80% (8/10) highlight the effectiveness of high-flow cannula oxygenation to avoid mechanical intubation in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in patients with covid-19 in the intensive care unit, 10% (1/10) show that noninvasive mechanical ventilation reduces intubation and the other 10% (1/10) agree that both procedures are safe and effective. According to this review, it can be concluded that Intensive Care Unit specialists should reinforce their knowledge on the proper and initial practice of HFNC before requiring forced intubation, since the positive pressure system generated probably reduces the level of infection contagion of patients in the ICU and mortality.
