Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a membrane gas exchange device in the venovenous circulation of a continuous renal replacement therapy for the purpose of CO2 elimination and pH compensation. Thus, the primary endpoint is the modification of the PaCO2 and/or the ventilator settings (tidal volume VT and plateau pressure Pplat).

Conditions

  • Renal Replacement Therapy

Interventions

DEVICE

Extracorporeal CO2 removal with the Prismalung(R) gas exchanger on the Prismaflex(R) renal replacement platform

1. With ongoing continuous hemofiltration and mechanical ventilation additional membrane gas exchange device (Prismalung®) in the renal replacement circulation; measurements of the effects on PaCO2 under varying blood and sweep gas flows 2. Afterwards, reduction of the tidal volume (VT) / plateau pressure until reaching the initial PaCO2value
