Treatments Being Tested
myAirvo3
For patients assigned to the HFNT intervention group, a myAirvo 3 device will be provided. The myAirvo 3 is for the treatment of spontaneously breathing patients, infant to adult, who would benefit from receiving high flow warmed and humidified respiratory gases. This includes patients who have had upper airways bypassed. The flow may be from 2 - 60 L/min depending on the patient interface. The myAirvo 3 is for patients in homes and long-term care facilities.
Pulse oximeter
A pulse oximeter will be provided to measure heart rate and pulse oximetry; subjects will enter and transmit the data on the smartphone once daily before 11AM. Heart rate and pulse oximetry measures will be taken after wearing the device for approximately 2 minutes.
