The book says 9L for up to 15 minutes. Physicians may vary in their recommendation.
From my personal experience and understanding I believe that, properly used it will work
in a few minutes. I think it is not a good Idea,
as I read somewhere, to use 100 % O2 at high flow rate
for 30 minutes or so and sleeping with a mask on (with O2).
I guess I offended someone who read the previous post as 3 months.
I did not mean months.
