Reducing aerosol dispersion by high flow therapy in COVID‐19: High resolution computational fluid dynamics simulations of particle behavior during high velocity nasal insufflation with a simple surgical mask

Reducing aerosol dispersion by high flow therapy in COVID‐19: High resolution computational fluid dynamics simulations of particle behavior during high velocity nasal insufflation with a simple surgical mask

Abstract Objective All respiratory care represents some risk of becoming an aerosol‐generating procedure (AGP) during COVID‐19 patient management. Personal protective equipment (PPE) and environmental control/engineering is advised. High velocity nasal insufflation (HVNI) and high flow nasal cannula...
