Traditionally, nasal oxygen therapy has been delivered at low flows through nasal cannulae.
In recent years, nasal cannulae designed to administer heated and humidified air/oxygen …

Invasive mechanical has been associated with high mortality in COVID-19. Alternative
therapy of high flow nasal therapy (HFNT) has been greatly debated around the world for …

High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) supportive therapy has emerged as a safe, useful therapy
in patients with respiratory failure, improving oxygenation and comfort. Recently several …

Objectives: High-flow nasal cannula is increasingly used in the management of respiratory

In this study, flow field characteristics in the trachea region in a realistic human upper airway
model were firstly measured by particle image velocimetry (PIV) in the air under three …

Breathing is one of the most essential processes in the human body. The basic functions of
breathing are to exchange gases (supplying oxygen from ambient air and removing carbon …

Soil shear strength is an important indicator of soil erosion sensitivity and the tillage
