This is a trial of a new way of treating patients with respiratory failure. The investigators propose to deliver a multi-centre clinical trial to determine whether veno-venous extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (VV-ECCO2R) and lower tidal volume mechanical ventilation improves outcomes and is cost-effective, in comparison with standard care in patients who are mechanically ventilated for acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure

Standard care with conventional lung protective mechanical ventilation
VV-ECCO2R to enable lower tidal volume mechanical ventilation (target tidal volume of ≤ 3ml/kg predicted body weight and a Pplat ≤ 25cmH20)
In the intervention arm a dual lumen catheter will be inserted into a central vein. VV-ECCO2R is commenced and managed as per study manual. Tidal volumes are then reduced on mechanical ventilation to enable lower tidal volume ventilation. Lower tidal volume facilitated by VV-ECCO2R will continue for a least 2 days up to a maximum of 7 days
