Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the incidence of reintubation within 5 days of extubationTimepoint: If patients need reintubation within 5 days of extubation then it would be considered as failure of HFNC and BiPAP

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the comfort and acceptability of therapy by patients using questionnaireTimepoint: 18 months;To monitor hemodynamic and respiratory parameter till Day 5 post extubationTimepoint: 18 months;To see incidence of reintubation within 48hrs and 72hrs of extubationTimepoint: 18 months
