Study Summary

The study aims to compare the efficacy of Nasal High Flow Therapy (NHF) with low-flow oxygen supplementation in improving postoperative intermittent desaturations. If so, this mode of therapy would provide a cost effective, relatively easy to implement, and better tolerated treatment to Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) for oxygen stabilization.

Primary Outcome

The 4% change oxygen-desaturation index (4% ODI) as determined from the recorded pulse oximetry data during the first postoperative 48 hours.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Low flow oxygen via nasal cannula
  • DEVICE Humidified Nasal High Flow Therapy
