Development and Feasibility of a Home Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program With Health Coaching.

abstract：BACKGROUND:High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy is used for patients with respiratory failure. Recently, HFNC therapy with very high gas flows (ie, gas flows of 60-100 L/min) was reported to generate higher positive airway pressure and an associated decrease in breathing frequency. However, the humidification of HFNC...
