The Application Effect of Modified Pressure-Reducing Fixation Protective Nasal Strip in the Nursing Care of Patients Receiving High-Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy

Materials Preparation consists of one foam dressing, one piece of 3M tape, and two pairs of scissors. 2. Manufacturing Procedure: step 1 Cut the foam dressing into two large rectangles and one little T-shape based on the patient's face shape and size as well as the width of the nasolabial fold. Attach these sections to the nasolabial fold region and both cheeks, respectively . Step 2: Based on the size of the oxygen cannula, set up small, medium, and large fixation patch models. Select the appropriate model according to the patient's condition and make the necessary cuts to properly secure the nasal prongs. Step 3: Check the tightness of the head strap, ensuring it is snug enough to fit one finger beneath it to avoid pressing on the skin around the ears. Ensure proper placement on the patient. See Figure 1 for detailed application.
