1. A high flow nasal therapy system comprising:
a gas supply,
a humidifier,
a nebulizer,
a flow line having a first branch for delivery of aerosol and a second branch for delivery of non-aerosolized gas,
a nasal interface, and
a controller configured to control the system in real time to vary the aerosol delivery to the nasal interface on a temporal basis,
wherein the controller is configured to control delivery of inlet gas into the first branch and the second branch with a desired proportional split between the first branch and the second branch to provide aerosolized gas delivery during patient inhalation and delivery of non-aerosolized gas during patient exhalation.
