Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Objective of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of CO2 removal by the multiECCO2R (CO2 Removal System) on the multiFiltrate/multiFiltrate Pro in veno-venous extracorporeal circulation during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in patients presenting with hypercapnia due to acute lung failure and acute kidney injury.

Treatment with the blood-gas exchanger multiECCO2R for CO2 removal

Treatment of patients suffering from hypercapnia due to acute lung failure and acute kidney injury (AKI). Patients will be treated up to 72 hours with CVVHD/HDF with a standard multiFiltrate blood line kit (multiFiltrate or multiFiltrate Pro). In order to perform an ECCO2R procedure during CVVHD/HDF treatment, the blood-gas exchanger multiECCO2R is inserted in a specifically designed blood line kit downstream of the hemodialyzer.
