ALung provides low-flow
extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) technologies for treating patients with acute respiratory failure
Indeed, this artificial carbon dioxide removal was so efficient that, when extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal approximated carbon dioxide production, alveolar ventilation could almost be ceased (37).
Ultra-protective mechanical ventilation may be achieved in patients with ARDS with the use of low flow (0.3-0.5 litres/minute) veno-venous extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal where tidal volumes could be reduced to 4 ml/kg of predicted body weight.

We report the use of the Novalung[R] interventional Lung Assist
extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal device, (Novalung GmbH, L otzenadcer 3, D-72379 Hechingen, Germany) to treat a 46-year-old female with life-threatening bronchospasm secondary to influenza infection.
They compared extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECC[O.sub.2]R) with pressure controlled inverse ratio ventilation, following on from a promising pilot study by Gattinoni (45).
