Patients 18 years of age or older for whom HFNC is considered appropriate at the time of consent. Patients with acute respiratory failure (PaO2/FIO2<300, SpO2<92%, etc. requiring oxygenation). High risk post extubation (age > 65 years, chronic heart failure, APACHE II score > 12, BMI > 30, airway problems, difficult weaning, duration of ventilator management > 7 days). Post thoracic surgery (ARISTAT score > 26 points, obesity, high risk of cardiac and pulmonary disease).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate respiratory muscle thickness changes in patients using HFNC before and after its use.
Efficacy
The results of this study will evaluate the changes in DTei, DTee, ETei, ETee, DTF, ETF, DTF/respiratory rate, and ETF/respiratory rate before and after wearing HFNC as changes in respiratory effort. In addition, the relationship between inspiratory and expiratory muscles will be evaluated.

Thirty patients were enrolled, and all completed the study without adverse events. For the primary outcome, the thickening fraction of the lateral abdominal muscles (TFABD) did not differ from baseline at HFNC flows of 30, 40, or 50 L/min. In contrast, diaphragm thickening fraction (TFdi) significantly decreased at 50 L/min. In exploratory analyses, TFABD decreased at 40 and 50 L/min in patients with high baseline TFABD.

The study population comprised adult ICU patients at Tokushima University Hospital who required high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, high risk of extubation failure, or impaired gas exchange after cardiac surgery. Among the 30 enrolled participants, 22 (73%) were male. The mean age was 69 years (SD 13), and the mean body mass index was 23.1 kg/m2 (SD 3.6). Twenty-five participants (83%) had a Charlson comorbidity index of 2 or higher. The indications for HFNC were high risk of extubation failure in 17 patients (57%), post-cardiac surgery respiratory support in 12 (40%), and acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in 1 (3%). The mean PaO2/FIO2 ratio was 329 (SD 84), and the mean SOFA score on the day of extubation was 6 (SD 3).
Between November 2021 and December 2023, 664 ICU patients were screened, and 260 met the eligibility criteria. Of these, 30 patients were enrolled. All enrolled participants completed the study protocol. This was a single-center randomized crossover trial in which each participant underwent baseline assessment under low-flow oxygen, followed by HFNC at 30, 40, and 50 L/min in random order for 15 minutes each. There were no dropouts or protocol discontinuations.
No adverse events were observed in any of the 30 participants who completed the study protocol. No serious adverse events, treatment discontinuations, or safety concerns related to the study intervention were reported.
The primary outcome was the change in the thickening fraction of the lateral abdominal muscles (TFABD) across the three HFNC flow settings as an index of expiratory muscle activity.
The secondary outcomes were changes in diaphragm thickening fraction (TFdi), individual expiratory muscle thickening fractions (TFIO, TFEO, TFTrA, and TFRA), and respiratory and hemodynamic variables, including breathing frequency, SpO2, FIO2, ROX index, heart rate, and blood pressure.
For the primary outcome, TFABD did not differ significantly from baseline at any HFNC flow setting in the overall cohort. In contrast, TFdi significantly decreased at 50 L/min compared with baseline (13% vs. 25%, p = 0.042). In exploratory analyses, participants with baseline TFABD greater than 10% showed significant reductions in TFABD at 40 and 50 L/min.
