Abstract

High-flow therapy has become popular in recent years, based on its physiological effects, the delivery of a safe and stable inspired fraction of oxygen, combined with heated and humidified flow, which made its use possible in different scenarios. However, studies demonstrating these benefits and effects have been mainly conducted using a nasal cannula, while the characteristics of this therapy in tracheostomized patients have not been sufficiently developed. We propose a narrative review highlighting the most relevant characteristics of high-flow therapy in this subgroup of patients.
