We have read with great interest the recent study published by Macé et al. [
[1]
], which described the impact of early high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy in adults
presenting with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in the ED; most notably observing
faster recovery or regression of respiratory failure with HFNC.- Macé J.
