Objectives: Although respiratory failure is the most common feature in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), abdominal organ involvement is likewise frequently observed. To investigate visceral and thoracic circulation and abdominal organ damage in COVID-19 patients.

Materials And Methods: A monocentric observational study was carried on.

Mortality and morbidity of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) are largely unaltered. A possible new approach to treatment of ARDS is offered by the discovery of inflammatory subphenotypes. In an ovine model of ARDS phenotypes, matching key features of the human subphenotypes, we provide an imaging characterization using computer tomography (CT).

Article Synopsis
  • This study examines the effectiveness of three new low-flow techniques for extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) in swine, focusing on enhancing ventilation for patients with acute respiratory failure.
  • Results showed that CO2 removal rates were significantly higher in treatments using lactic acid and hydrochloric acid combinations compared to the initial ventilation settings.
  • Minute ventilation decreased with these treatments, indicating better CO2 clearance without compromising breathing effort, while maintaining stable blood pH and electrolyte levels.
