Title: [Extracorporeal elimination of CO2 as a component of the intensive therapy of status asthmaticus]. Author: Lukomskiĭ GI, Alekseeva ME, Vaĭsberg LA, Pavliutenkov MG, Sagalovich MA, Sevost'ianov DA, Karasev AB, Pisarevskiĭ AA. Journal: Anesteziol Reanimatol; 1990; (4):6-8. PubMed ID: 2077975. Abstract: The first industrial Soviet membrane oxygenator "MOCT-122" was used for extracorporeal CO2 elimination lasting for several (up to 24) hours, in 4 patients with severe asthmatic status. This led to hypercapnia liquidation and optimization of an intensive regimen of controlled lung ventilation, which made it possible to perform effective tracheobronchial lavage in the most favourable conditions. No complications of assisted veno-venous perfusion have been observed as a result of therapeutic procedures performed. Third degree asthmatic status was arrested in all the patients and they were discharged from hospital in a satisfactory condition.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
