Fig. 2From: Intraoperative use of extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) and emergency ECMO requirement in patients undergoing lung transplant: a case-matched cohort retrospective studyChanges in PaCO2, mPAP and pH in the 15 patients undergoing ECCO2R. Legend: PaCO2 = Arterial Carbon Dioxide Partial Pressure; mPAP = mean pulmonary artery blood pressure; T0 = double lung ventilation at the beginning of LT; T1 = single lung ventilation (preclamping of the pulmonary artery); T2 = clamping of the pulmonary artery; T3= after 40 min from clamping; T4 = after 90 min from clamping; T5 = after 120 min from clamping; T6 = declamping of the pulmonary artery; primary axis (on the left) = values of PaCO2 and mPAP in mmHg; secondary axis (on the right) = values of pH. All values are reported as mean and standard deviation. ECCO2R was started between T1 and T2 and continued until the end of the surgeryBack to article page
