Summary:There is little argument regarding the ability of invasive positive pressure ventilation to easily achieve essentially normal arterial blood gasses in patients without significant acute or chronic lung disease. [...]high-flow oxygen through nasal cannula has been shown to be effective in postoperative cardiac surgical patients. Zarbock A, Mueller E, Netzer S, Gabriel A, Feindt P, Kindgen-Milles D.
