Renal Replacement Therapy Plus Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal

This study aims to assess whether in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring mechanical ventilation, a strategy that combines renal replacement therapy (RRT) and extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) allows reduction of tidal volume and plateau pressure. Systemic Inflammatory Response and Safety Variables will also be analysed.
