Figure 1.
The continuum of extracorporeal support for acute respiratory failure, characterized by the degree of oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal, the intent of various modes of support, and areas requiring further research. ARDS = acute respiratory distress syndrome; ECCO2R = extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal; ECMO = extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; MV = mechanical ventilation.
