• Lead Sponsor: Southeast University, China

Brief Summary

In the design of extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) combined with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) equipment, in model of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) , the HCO3- concentration in the pre membrane lung blood is diluted by the replacement solution, and a decrease in HCO3- leads to a decrease in PCO2. On the other hand, in continuous veno-venous hemodialysis (CVVHD), HCO3- in post membrane blood will exchange interaction. The exchange results of HCO3- determine the impact of CVVHD on the CO2 removal efficiency of the ECCO2R combined CRRT system. This study aims to investigate the effects of CVVH and CVVHD on in vitro CO2 clearance efficiency.

Detailed Description

In the design of extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) combined with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) equipment, the pre dilution replacement solution for continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) enters the extracorporeal bloodstream upstream of the membrane lung, so the HCO3- concentration in the pre membrane lung blood is diluted by the replacement solution. HCO3- and dissolved CO2 are in a dynamic and rapid equilibrium state, and a decrease in HCO3- leads to a decrease in PCO2. On the other hand, in continuous veno-venous hemodialysis (CVVHD), the blood after the membrane needs to undergo material exchange with the dialysate through a filter. The dialysate is usually HCO3- with normal plasma concentration, so HCO3- in post membrane blood will exchange interaction. The exchange results of HCO3- determine the impact of CVVHD on the CO2 removal efficiency of the ECCO2R combined CRRT system. This study aims to investigate the effects of CVVH and CVVHD on in vitro CO2 clearance efficiency.
