Conference Presentation: Effect of Postextubation High-Flow Nasal Oxygen With vs Without Noninvasive Ventilation on Reintubation Among Patients at High Risk of Extubation Failure

In a 2019 randomized trial, the use of high-flow nasal oxygen with noninvasive ventilation after extubation decreased risk of reintubation compared with high-flow nasal oxygen alone in patients at high risk of extubation failure. Arnaud Thille, MD, PhD, of the University Hospital of Poitiers, France, presents findings from the HIGH-WEAN Study Group at the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) 32nd Annual Congress, LIVES 2019, on October 2 in Berlin.
