Abstract

COVID–19 can cause lung injury and respiratory failure in some patients. When other means of oxygen therapy are ineffective, high-flow oxygen therapy can help to delay or even avoid intubation in some patients. In this article, we present a clinical case of a patient who had respiratory failure caused by COVID–19 and was successfully treated with high-flow oxygen therapy.
