Early prediction of high flow nasal cannula therapy outcomes using a modified ROX index incorporating heart rate

Abstract Background The ROX index (ratio of pulse oximetry/FIO2 to respiratory rate) has been validated to predict high flow nasal cannula therapy (HFNC) outcomes in patients with pneumonia. We evaluated a modified ROX index incorporating heart rate (HR) in patients initiated on HFNC for acute hypox...
