Brief Summary: The aim of the study is to compare the efficiency on respiratory failure regression of high-flow nasal oxygen therapy versus standard oxygen in patients admitted to the ED for de novo acute respiratory failure.
Detailed Description: Prospective observational before-after study at the ED in two French centers. Selection of patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure at the ED. Application of oxygen strategy according to the period: * before period: standard oxygen delivered through nasal cannula, face mask or non-rebreathing reservoir mask, with a flow rate adjusted to maintain a pulse oxymetry of at least 92%. * after period: high-flow oxygen therapy continuously applied via large-bore nasal prongs with a gas flow rate of 50 L/min and a FiO2 adjusted to maintain a pulse oxymetry at least 92%.
