At Avisha Children’s Hospital, we use the Heated Humidified High-Flow Nasal Cannula (HHHFNC) to provide advanced respiratory support for infants and children experiencing breathing difficulties. This non-invasive therapy delivers a high flow of warm, humidified oxygen through nasal prongs, helping to improve oxygenation and reduce the work of breathing.
HHHFNC is especially beneficial for newborns and pediatric patients with conditions such as bronchiolitis, pneumonia, and mild to moderate respiratory distress. By providing a steady and gentle flow of air, it helps keep the airways open, decreases airway resistance, and enhances comfort compared to traditional oxygen delivery methods.
Our specialized neonatal and pediatric care teams closely monitor and adjust the therapy to ensure optimal respiratory support while minimizing the need for more invasive ventilation. At Avisha Children’s Hospital, HHHFNC therapy is part of our commitment to delivering gentle, effective, and child-friendly respiratory care.
