High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy in patients undergoing thoracic surgery: current evidence and practice
Always give credit when credit is due and cite your sources. The article below isn't free, but if you can get your hands on it, it has some really nice tables. In particular, there is one table where they compare non-invasive ventilation to high-flow nasal cannula with regards to comfort, airway pressure and PEEP (see more on my post about that yesterday), anatomical dead space, CO2 washout, mucociliary function, pulmonary effects, extra pulmonary effects, skin breakdown and sores. It's worth checking out if you have access to this journal.
