Study on a low-flow CO2 removal device for breathing failure
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks back at medical records of people who used a special device (ECCO2R) in the ICU to help remove carbon dioxide from the blood. The goal is to see if the device is safe and works well for patients with breathing problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been treated with the ECCO2R device while in the hospital.
- You must have been in the ICU between January 1, 2022 and June 30, 2024.
- You must be 18 years old or older.

This study compares a new breathing device to standard tests for diagnosing asthma and COPD. If you have been referred for breathing tests because your doctor suspects asthma or COPD, you may be able to join.
This study tests a machine that removes carbon dioxide from your blood (called extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal or ECCO2R) to help protect your lungs from further damage while on a breathing machine. It may be an option if you have severe ARDS and your breathing machine settings are very high.
This study tests a new mask designed to help remove carbon dioxide more effectively. It is for hospitalized adults with breathing failure who need non-invasive breathing support or high oxygen.
This trial tests a device called PrismaLung+ that helps remove extra carbon dioxide from the blood of patients on breathing machines. It may help people whose lungs are struggling despite gentle ventilation settings.
This study tests a treatment that removes carbon dioxide from the blood (using a machine) in addition to noninvasive ventilation (a breathing mask) for people with severe COPD flare-ups who cannot have a breathing tube placed. The goal is to see if this extra treatment helps improve blood acidity and carbon dioxide levels.
This study tests an “extra-CO2 removal” breathing support approach to help protect the lungs in people with moderate ARDS, a serious lung injury. You would be on a ventilator for a short time, and the team would check whether this approach improves breathing outcomes while aiming to be safer for the lungs.
