Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
to determine the proportion of children eith acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure ((AHRF) RECEIVING EARLY HEATED HUMIDIFIED HIGH FLOW NASAL CANULA (HHHFNC) oxygen therapy requiring finally escalation of therapy in the form of contineous positive airway pressure support(CPAP) and intubation followed by mechanical ventilation in comparison to those receiving conventional oxygen therapyTimepoint: 24 hour and 7 days and at discharge from Pediatrics Intensive Care Unit

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
to compare in two groups 1. length of stay in pediatrics intensive care unit 2.mortality 3.improvement in respiratory distress 4.improvement in comfort level scale 5.complication in the form of air leak(pneumothorax,pneumediastinum)nasal canula (defined as erythema or erosion of nasal mucosa,nares or septum)Timepoint: september 2021 to august 2022
