Low-Flow CO2 Removal for Mild to Moderate ARDS With PRISMALUNG

This pilot observational study will assess changes in pH /PaO2 /PaCO2, Respiratory Rate and device CO2 clearance in the first 24 hours of Extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) following tidal volume (Vt), and plateau pressure reduction in patients with mild to moderate ARDS.

About this study

Extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) with a low-flow CO2 removal device (Prismalung, Gambro-Baxter) integrated on the Prismaflex platform (Gambro-Baxter) allows tidal volume (Vt) and plateau pressure reduction in patients with mild to moderate ARDS. This pilot observational study will assess changes in pH /PaO2 /PaCO2, Respiratory Rate and device CO2 clearance in the first 24 hours of ECCO2R following Vt and plateau pressure reduction in patients with mild to moderate ARDS. Safety variables during treatment will also be analyzed. A series of 20 consecutive patients will be included in this observational study.

Treatment and study plan

CO2 removal with PRISMALUNG in ARDS

Device

Observational study of patients with mild to moderate Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) submitted to Extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) with the PRISMALUNG device to allow ultraprotective mechanical ventilation with tidal volume reduction (from 6 to 4 ml/kg, predicted body weight) and plateau pressure reduction from 28-30 to 23-25 cmH2O.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of participants who achieved a tidal volume (Vt) reduction to 4 mL/kg while maintaining pH and PaCO2 to ± 20% of baseline values obtained at Vt of 6 mL/kg.

    Time frame: 24 hours
