Explore how QCH uses NHF therapy across the hospital.
Learn about the research that led to the implementation of NHF therapy at QCH.
The early use of NHF is associated with improved physiological and clinical outcomes compared to standard oxygen therapy, including1-6:
Clinical evidence supports a dose-by-weight approach with suggested flow rates of approximately 2 liters per kilogram per minute (L/kg/min) for infants between 3.0 and 12.5 kilograms.4,7-12 However, there is no evidence to support this practice for preterm neonates, older children or adults. Published clinical protocols may give guidance to setting flow rates in children.7-12 The graphic below summarizes the findings from published literature.
