High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) plays an important role in nonstandard ICUs and is beneficial to the patients therein. Because these nonstandard ICUs are repurposed general wards, and considering the shortage of medical resources and the need to prevent nosocomic infection, these wards have different respiratory-treatment strategies than general wards and standard ICUs. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) plays an important role and is beneficial to patients in nonstandard ICUs. HFNC appears to be an effective new therapeutic option compared with other oxygen delivery devices (e.g., nonrebreathing oxygen masks, Venturi masks). Due to his obvious chest tightness, shortness of breath, and orthopnea -all of which might have been partial manifestations of heart failure-he was given HFNC (initial flow rate, 60 L/min; oxygen concentration, 90%; temperature, 37°C) and diuretic treatments.	./cache/cord-252434-7g69amr1.txt	./txt/cord-252434-7g69amr1.txt
