NCT04341285

Brief Summary

Experimental intervention: Insertion of Extracorporal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) within 24 hours of referral to an Intensive Care Unit. Control intervention: Insertion of Extracorporal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) as rescue therapy following failure of conventional therapy for ARDS. This conventional therapy will be standardized to reduce bias. Duration of intervention per patient: varies, depending on severity of pulmonary compromise Follow-up per patient: Until hospital discharge Accompanying measures: Serum Samples and bronchoscopy samples of patients included into the trial for secondary analysis of inflammatory parameters and potential biomarkers

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • COVID-19positive(+) ARDS as defined according to the Berlin Definition
  • ratio of partial pressure arterial oxygen and fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/ FiO2) ≤100
  • Bilateral opacities consistent with pulmonary edema on frontal chest radiograph
  • requirement for positive pressure ventilation via an endotracheal tube or non-invasive ventilation
  • no clinical evidence of left atrial hypertension, or if measured, a Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure (PAOP) less than or equal to 18 mmHg.
  • ≤ 7 days from the initiation of mechanical ventilation at the time of randomization. - Patients must be enrolled within 96 hours of onset of ARDS -

You may not qualify if:

  • COVID-19negative(-) ARDS
  • Age less than 18 years
  • More than 7 days since initiation of mechanical ventilation
  • more than 96 hours since meeting ARDS criteria
  • patient, surrogate or physician not committed to full intensive care support.
  • pregnancy
