High Flow Therapy: Definitions
- Flow rate that exceeds patient flow demands at various minute volumes●A method to achieve actual FiO2 of 1●Eliminate entrainment of ambient air
- Accomplished in the nasopharynx only with proper gas conditioning●Conventional cannula therapy limited by nasal damage●HFT becomes more than oxygen therapy
- Combination of technologies to achieve optimal temperature, humidity and flow rate at the point of delivery

High Flow Therapy: Mechanisms of Action
Humidify / Warm Airways
Supports Inspiration
Flush Dead Space
●CO2 Elimination●Oxygen Efficiency
●Cannula Flow > inspiratory●Work of Breathing
●Mobilization of Secretions●Nasal comfort

Humidify / Warm Airways
●Nasopharynx is highly efficient at conditioning inspiratory gas
●Anatomical Structure
●Mucosal Architecture
Inspiratory Gas Conditioning

Conditioning Prevents Injury
Inadequate warming and humidification can cause:
●Thickened Secretions
● Decreased mucocilliary action
●Thermal challenge
● Bloody secretions
● Lung atelectasis

● High nasal flow, unimpeded at mouth, fills the upper
airways – storing O2 during exhalation and flushing CO2
● High nasal flow, unimpeded at mouth, fills the upper
airways – storing O2 during exhalation and flushing CO2
Flush Dead Space & Support Inspiration
● High mask flow, impeded by pressure at the mouth - stores less
O2 in the upper airways during exhalation and adds prosthetic
dead space

Dead space washout● Supports CO2 ventilation● Enhances oxygenation
Matched inspiratory flow ● Attenuates nasopharyngeal resistance

Mechanism of Action for HFT

What About Pressure?
●Pressure determined by primarily by leak (Kahn at al, Pediatr Res 2007)- Infant anatomical size – passage through nasopharynx- Size ratio between nares and prongs – back flush
●Inadvertent CPAP with conventional nasal cannula (Locke et al, Pediatrics 1993) - Smaller (2 cm OD) prongs negate pressure
- Occluded only 50% of the nares- Larger (3 cm OD) prongs generate pressure
●Intentional CPAP with conventional nasal cannula (Sreenan et al, Pediatrics 2001)- Snug prongs- Mouth held closed- Up to 8 cmH2O with 3 lpm

HFT DOES NOT TREAT A DISEASE, THE MECHANISMS TREAT SYMPTOMS
Here are a few general disease states and how the mechanisms of action treat the symptoms.
Can you think of other respiratory insufficiencies where the symptoms can be treated by HFT?

Calculating Flows
Tidal Volume 4-6 ml/kg
Neonates: VT are less, but rates are much greater

Infant (0 – 1 yr) 30 - 60
Toddler (1 - 3 yrs) 24 - 40
Preschooler (3 - 6 yrs) 22 - 34
School Age (6 – 12 yrs) 18 - 30
Adolescent (12 – 18 yrs) 12 - 16

Flow Requirements: Infants
Inhalation:
RR = 60 - 70+
Tidal Volume = 4-6 ml/kg
Inspiratory time fraction = 0.3 – 0.5 (<0.3 sec)
< 2 LPM (in most cases)
26
Exhalation:
Expiratory time = < 0.6 sec
Extrathoracic dead space = 2.6 ml/kg
Inhalation flow is NOT sufficient

Indications for Use:
Indications:●Spontaneously breathing patients who are requiring supplemental
oxygen therapy
●Any patient who is on an oxygen mask that is: 1. Not compliant, 2. not improving, 3. Or has an increase in work of breathing
●Post- extubation support or weaning from NPPV
●Patients requiring supplemental heat & humidity for artificial airways
Contraindications:
●Patients not spontaneously breathing●Patients that have a deviated septum●Patients with severe facial trauma or disfigurement

●Dysart et al. - Respir Med 2009;103:1400-5 - The combination of flow dynamics and gas conditioning offer a number of mechanisms
that impart impressive clinical outcomes
●Woodhead et al. - J Perinatol 2006;26:481-5 - Showed that the nasal mucosa is preserved because of the Vapotherm conditioning and
this allowed these authors to avert intubation.
●Holleman-Duray et al. - J Perinatol 2007;27:776-81 - At Loyola showed they were able to extubate from greater vent setting by using
Vapotherm. There is some mild pressure, and a growing number of studies have confirmed this.
●Saslow et al. - J Perinatol 2006;26:476-80 - were they showed the distending pressure to be not more than with a CPAP of
6. But, you can’t compare HFT directly to CPAP because there are other mechanisms at play such as the elimination of dead space.
●Lampland et al. - J Pediatr 2009;154:177-82 - Compared to a CPAP of 6cmH20 the babies were doing just as well with high
HFT setting that generated just about half of the airway pressure.
