Abstract
Adult extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) systems and pediatric ECMO
share the common objectives of having a low blood flow rate and low priming volume while safely
maintaining sufficient respiratory support. The Hemolung is a highly simplified adult ECCO2R system
intended for partial respiratory support in adult patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure.
