Summary

The aim of the study is to test whether oxygen therapy delivered through high-flow nasal cannula devices in patients admitted to the emergency department for acute carbon monoxide poisoning is superior to the non-rebreathing oxygen face mask therapy with a 15 L/minute oxygen flow (currently the first-line therapy), in terms of reduction of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) concentration and delayed neurological sequelae incidence.
