Critically ill COVID-19 patients are generally admitted to the ICU for respiratory insufficiency
which can evolve into a multiple-organ dysfunction syndrome requiring extracorporeal organ …

As a result of technical improvements, extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO 2 R)
now has the potential to play an important role in the management of adults with acute …

Rationale: We developed an innovative, minimally invasive, highly efficient extracorporeal
CO2 removal (ECCO2R) technique called respiratory electrodialysis (R-ED). Objectives: To …

Introduction: Citric acid infusion in extracorporeal blood may allow concurrent regional
anticoagulation and enhancement of extracorporeal CO2 removal. Effects of citric acid on …

Background: The authors studied the effects on membrane lung carbon dioxide extraction
(VCO2ML), spontaneous ventilation, and energy expenditure (EE) of an innovative …

Noninvasive (NIV) and invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) are standard therapies for
treating acute respiratory failure. Patients on IMV can suffer from ventilator induced lung …

Advanced extracorporeal therapies have been successfully applied in the austere
environment of combat casualty care over the previous decade. In this review, we describe …

Introduction: Extracorporeal gas exchange requires the passage of oxygen and carbon
dioxide (CO2) across an artificial membrane. Current European Union regulations do not …

Objectives: We designed a novel respiratory dialysis system to remove C o 2 from blood in
the form of bicarbonate. We aimed to determine if our respiratory dialysis system removes C …

We previously described a highly efficient extracorporeal CO 2 removal technique called
respiratory electrodialysis (R-ED). Respiratory electrodialysis was composed of a …
