The aim of this prospective observational cohort study is to develop a predictive model for high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) failure in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) caused by SARS-CoV-2. By combining clinical data and metabolomic profiles, the study seeks to answer: \- Can integrating clinical parameters with metabolomic markers enhance the prediction of HFNC failure in AHRF patients? Participants with AHRF due to SARS-CoV-2 receiving HFNC under standard-of-care protocols will be monitored until hospital discharge or death. Blood samples for metabolomic analysis will be collected at inclusion.

Predictive Model Development
Timeframe: From the initiation of HFNC until the need for intubation, hospital discharge, or death, whichever occurs first (up to 28 days). Completed using the Training Cohort (March 2020 to April 2021).
