Researchers dig into past ICU data to see if CO2 removal machine helps breathing failure patients
NCT ID NCT07161271
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks back at medical records of about 59 ICU patients who used a low-flow carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) machine for breathing failure. The goal is to describe how the device was used and what happened to patients, including survival and side effects. It does not test a new treatment but aims to improve future care by learning from past experiences.
