Unless both the o2 supply company and the medical staff at Toronto General Hospital in the Lung Transplant group are both wrong, it is what I said is it in the video.
The technology for home oxygen breathing aids keeps getting better and better.
To deliver the o2 I needed, they had to join 2 machines that each delivered over 7 litres / minute, to give a combined flow of up to 15 litres / minute.
that doesnt look like a high flow...........I dont see any sort of reservoir other than your own anatomic reservoir. That looks like a regular nasal cannula that has a oxygen Fio2 of 24%-44% with Flow range 1-6 lpm. If your turning your flow rate above 6lpm from your concentrator it's just being wasted to atmosphere. Any oxygen device labeled high flow is a device that supplies your more 02/air then your are breathing. Just sharing what I know for your knowledge and other people.
Aha. that's me in the Breathe Easy video.

How I envy you your transplant. I'm 82 and out of the running. Literally.

Lois, My father had lung disease in his early 80's and wasn't eligible either. It is sad, and painful for everyone. May God bless you.
