DEVICE

High Flow

Standard HighFlow therapy after weaning from continuous positive airway pressure therapy will be applied on different flow levels. Starting with a flow level of 8l/min, the flow-rates will be changed every 30 minutes subsequently from 8-6-4-2-4-6-8 l/min. Meanwhile, data on lung volume changes will be measured using electrical impedance tomography.
