U.S., Aug. 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07785375) titled 'Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal Plus Noninvasive Ventilation in Patients With COPD Not Eligible for Intubation' on Aug. 21.
Brief Summary: This study will evaluate whether adding extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) to noninvasive ventilation can improve breathing in adults hospitalized with a severe worsening of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Participants will have high carbon dioxide levels and increased acidity in their blood despite treatment with noninvasive ventilation and will not be eligible for invasive mechanical ventilation through a breathing tube.
A total of 14 participants will be assign...
