Abstract Introduction Interventional lung assist ILA based on the use of a pumpless extracorporeal membrane oxygenator facilitates carbon dioxide CO2 elimination in acute respiratory distress syndrome ARDS . It is unclear whether an ILA system should be clamped during cardiopulmonary resuscitation CPR in patients with ARDS or not. The aim of our study was to test the effects of an ILA on haemodynamics and gas exchange during CPR on animals with ARDS and to establish whether the ILA should be kept open or clamped under these circumstances. Methods The study was designed to be prospective and experimental. The experiments were performed on 12 anaesthetised and mechanically ventilated pigs weighing 41 to 58 kg . One femoral artery and one femoral vein were cannulated and connected to an ILA. ARDS was induced by repeated bronchoalveolar lavage. An .
