Prediction of noninvasive ventilation failure using the ROX index in patients with de novo acute respiratory failure

The ratio of SpO2/FiO2 to respiratory rate (ROX) index is commonly used to predict the failure of high-flow nasal cannula. However, its predictive power for noninvasive ventilation (NIV) failure is unclear.
