High-flow nasal cannula for COVID-19 patients: low risk of bio-aerosol dispersion

Bio-aerosol dispersion via high-flow nasal cannula shows a similar risk to standard oxygen masks. High-flow nasal prongs with a surgical mask on the patient's face might benefit hypoxaemic COVID-19 patients without added risk for the environment. https://bit.ly/34p7Fyy
