Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Hypoxemia defined by a ratio of the partial pressure of arterial oxygen to the fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2:FiO2) ≤ 300 while the patient is breathing oxygen through NHF for at least 15 minutes;

  • Cardiogenic pulmonary edema;
  • Glasgow Coma Scale \< 12;
  • Imminent death;
  • Contraindications to noninvasive ventilation;
  • Tracheostomy.
