Effect of HIgh-Flow Therapy in Long-Term Oxygen Therapy (HILOT) : study protocol for a multicentre, registry-based, randomised clinical trial
Background: The use of high-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) compared with standard low-flow oxygen therapy (LFOT) may improve outcomes in people with oxygen-dependent chronic respiratory failure (CRF). The primary aim of this multicentre trial was to evaluate HFOT in addition to LFOT, compared with regular LFOT in people with CRF due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung
