Hypercapnic respiratory failure is common in ICU due to ARDS and COPD exacerbations. The use of ECCO2R has changed the way we manage these patients. We report a patient with COPD exacerbation that failed NIV and placed on low flow ECCO2R. Low flow ECCO2R

Case Report: Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal in a Severely Brain-Injured Patient With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome [PDF]
The management of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in a patient suffering from a severe brain injury may be difficult, especially when hypercapnia occurs.

Lung- and diaphragm-protective strategies in acute respiratory failure: an in silico trial [PDF]
Background Lung- and diaphragm-protective (LDP) ventilation may prevent diaphragm atrophy and patient self-inflicted lung injury in acute respiratory failure, but feasibility is uncertain.

Intraoperative use of extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) and emergency ECMO requirement in patients undergoing lung transplant: a case-matched cohort retrospective study [PDF]
Background The use of extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is less invasive than extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and intraoperative control of gas exchange could be feasible.

“Awake” ECCO2R superseded intubation in a near-fatal asthma attack
Background Near-fatal asthma attacks are life threatening events that often require mechanical ventilation. Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is, beside extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a well-established rescue option whenever ...

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19 leads to a high rate of mortality in the intensive care unit (ICU). A lung-protective mechanical ventilation strategy using low tidal volumes is a cornerstone to management, but uncontrolled ...

Low flow extracorporeal CO2 removal in ARDS patients: a prospective short-term crossover pilot study [PDF]
Background Lung protective mechanical ventilation (MV) is the corner stone of therapy for ARDS. However, its use may be limited by respiratory acidosis.

Daily use of extracorporeal CO2 removal in a critical care unit: indications and results
Background While outcome improvement with extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) is not demonstrated, a strong pathophysiological rational supports its use in the setting of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and COPD exacerbation.

A mock circulation loop to test extracorporeal CO2 elimination setups [PDF]
Background Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is a promising yet limited researched therapy for hypercapnic respiratory failure in acute respiratory distress syndrome and exacerbated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
