The role of high-flow nasal therapy in bronchiectasis: a post hoc analysis

William R Good et al. ERJ Open Res. .

Abstract

High-flow nasal therapy significantly reduces exacerbation rates and improves quality of life in patients with stable bronchiectasis. High-flow nasal therapy is therefore a potential treatment option for patients with bronchiectasis. https://bit.ly/2JFXuQc.
