The Effects of Gas Humidification with High-Flow Nasal Cannula on Cultured Human Airway Epithelial Cells

Figure 2

Transepithelial resistance (TER) for Calu-3 monolayers exposed to one of three levels of relative humidity: <20% (dry), 69% (noninterventional comparator), and >90% (HFNC). TER was less than the noninterventional comparator group in the HFNC and dry groups ( ๐‘ƒ < 0 . 0 0 1 ). Data are mean ยฑ SEM. *Group effect ( ๐‘ƒ < 0 . 0 0 1 ). ยงTime effect ( ๐‘ƒ < 0 . 0 0 1 ).
