Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Two nare high flow nasal cannula

Active comparator: Two Nare (Duet) high flow nasal cannula - Recently a new mode of high flow oxygen therapy has presented on the market where the cannula of high flow have different diameters. Left cannula larger in diameter than the right. These two-nare size high flow nasal cannula are capable of delivering gases at a flow rate of 15-60 L/min, similar to the conventional HFNP but the difference in the diameters provide different levels of positive pressure as compared to conventional HFNP. The two nare nasal cannula will be used for 30 minutes to assess the gas exchange, hemodynamic parameters, the tolerance and comfort of the device to the patient.

Placebo comparator: Conventional High flow nasal cannula - Conventional high flow nasal cannula that has been used for many years will be compared with two-nare high flow nasal cannula. The two nare nasal cannula will be used for 30 minutes to assess the gas exchange, hemodynamic parameters, the tolerance and comfort of the device to the patient.


Treatment: Devices: Two nare high flow nasal cannula
Recently a new mode of high flow oxygen therapy has presented on the market where the prongs of high flow have different diameters .These two-nare size high flow nasal cannula are capable of delivering gases at a flow rate of 15-50 L/min, similar to the conventional HFNP but the difference in the diameters provide different levels of positive pressure as compared to conventional HFNP.
