Conditions
Interventions
During a 30 minute washout period post-extubation, patients will be titrated to receive a fraction of oxygen (FiO2) at a flow rate of 30 lpm. At the end of this period an arterial blood gas sample will be taken. Patients will then be randomised to receive either FMO or HFNO. The FiO2 and flow rate will remain the same. At the end of 30 minutes an ABG will be taken. Patients will then crossover to receive the other mode for 30 minutes with an ABG taken at the end of the period. The FMO group will have oxygen supplied via a Hudson Face Mask and a Fisher & Paykel Healthcare MR850 humidifier. The HFNO group will have oxygen supplied via a Fisher & Paykel Healthcare MR880 humidification system.
