Project Objectives
To determine to what extent does high flow nasal oxygen (HFNO), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or noninvasive ventilation (NIV) impact the need for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), hospital length of stay, and death compared to standard oxygen therapy (SOT) or against each other.
