The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of heated humidified high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy as a conservative treatment option for newborns suffering from nasal stenosis, a condition that often leads to respiratory distress and feeding difficulties. Given the increasing utilization of HFNC in various upper and lower respiratory tract indications, characterized by its flow-based mechanism and minimal mucosal damage, we seek to investigate its potential benefits in this specific patient population.
