Question: what is the difference between high flow oxygen and bipap?
Answer: Results showed that HFNC was not inferior to BiPAP in reintubation rates. Oxygenation was shown to improve more with BiPAP than HFNC but arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) was shown to decrease faster with HFNC. BiPAP did have higher rate of discontinuation of use and of skin breakdown.
