"Introduction
Pneumonia is extremely common. Nonetheless, there is surprisingly little evidence about supporting pneumonia patients using bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) or high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC). The recent FLORALI study offers new insight into this. This post will explore how BiPAP and HFNC compare for pneumonia patients, prior evidence, and the FLORALI study."
