High-flow nasal oxygen therapy is a relatively new tool that has aorused much expectation in different health-care settings, being used in patients with different underlying conditions.
Its physiological advantages, which make it unique and the finding of new uses, with possible indications in anesthesia that could imply important implications, especially in the management of the airway, have led to a growing interest also in the field of anesthesiology.
We have reviewed articles published between 2015 and November 2018, after doing a search in Pubmed, especially oriented on the role of this new technique in the perioperative period.
Besides explaining what the technique consists of, we comment on physiological benefits (some with greater scientific evidence), indications especially in anesthesia (assessing the current scientific support), contraindications, adverse effects, conclusions and current trends. Finally, we finish by presenting a series of questions that need to be resolved and that require further study.
