high-flow oxygen flushes exhaled CO₂ from upper airways and builds an oxygen reservoir
High-flow oxygen therapy enables dead space washout of exhaled carbon dioxide from the upper airways, creating an oxygen reservoir that increases in proportion to increasing flow rate and reduces rebreathing of exhaled CO₂.
What this means for you
When exhaled carbon dioxide is continuously cleared from your upper airways, your next breath pulls in fresher, oxygen-richer air instead of recycled waste gas. This means your lungs work more efficiently with every breath — something most people notice as a clearer head, steadier energy, and a greater sense of ease during and after a session.
