Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal for acute respiratory failure: a review of potential indications, clinical practice and open research questions [PDF]
International audienceExtracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is a form of extracorporeal life support (ECLS) largely aimed at removing carbon dioxide in patients with acute hypoxemic or acute hypercapnic respiratory failure, so as to minimize ...

Enhanced extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal by acidification and metabolic control
Minerva Anestesiologica, 2023Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) promotes protective ventilation in patients with acute respiratory failure, but devices with high CO2 extraction capacity are required for clinically relevant impact. This study evaluates three novel low-flow techniques based on dialysate acidification, also combined with renal replacement therapy, and ...

Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal in ARDS
1991The mortality rate due to acute respiratory failure (ARF) secondary to extensive inflammation of pulmonary parenchima (ARDS) varies, in different series, from 15% [1] to 90% [2] and this variability is not surprising since we are dealing with a syndrome whose etiology and subsequent outcome vary considerably.

Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal
1989We report the case of a 23-year-old man who was admitted to intensive care for ventilation following a presumed community-acquired pneumonia and whose respiratory failure required the use of a novel piece of equipment (the Novalung®) which allowed portable arterio-venous carbondioxide removal (AVCO2R).

Arteriovenous Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal A Mathematical Model and Experimental Evaluation
ASAIO Journal, 1998To explore the feasibility and operating limits of arteriovenous extracorporeal CO2 removal (AVCO2R) for support of acute respiratory failure, the authors developed a mathematical model to simulate (AVCO2R), evaluate the effects of several parameters used in its application, and predict the feasibility and necessary conditions for total CO2 removal ...

Low-frequency positive-pressure ventilation with extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal
Critical Care Medicine, 1990Successful use of a new technique, low-frequency positive-pressure ventilation with extracorporeal CO2 removal (LFPPV-ECCR) is presented. The association of fulminant respiratory failure with CNS hemangioblastoma, described in the present patient, has been reported only once before, in 1928.
