ventilation (NIPPV) leading to intubation and mechanical ventilation\n\nGroup 2: Patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure on invasive mechanical ventilation who have either:\n\n* Failed two or more weaning attempts OR\n* Failed one or more weaning attempts and do not wish to be invasively mechanically ventilated.\n\nGroup 3: Patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure on noninvasive positive pressure ventilation who have failed two weaning attempts and do not wish to be invasively mechanically ventilated.\n\nGroup 4: Patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure who in the view of the treating physician are declining on optimized non-invasive positive pressure ventilation OR demonstrate a complete intolerance of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation for any reason and invasive mechanical ventilation is considered undesirable by the treating physician.\n\nGroup 5: Patients who are currently invasively mechanically ventilated and in the view of the treating physician would benefit from the application of protective lung ventilation, and in whom this cannot be achieved without significant worsening of respiratory failure.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL',

(MAP) \\> 65 mmHg without vasopressor support, or MAP \\> 60 mmHg with a requirement for vasopressor support that can be attributed to sedation or dynamic hyperinflation resulting from mechanical

without significant worsening of respiratory failure\n* On IMV for at least 12 hours\n* pH \\<7.30 due to respiratory acidosis\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Presence of acute, uncontrolled arrhythmia\n* Acute ischemic heart disease\n* Presence of bleeding diathesis\n* Significant abnormality or weakness/paralysis of respiratory muscles due to a know muscular dystrophy or neurologic disorder\n* Recent (\\< 7 days) prolonged (\\>24 hrs) use of muscle paralyzing agents\n* Cerebrovascular accident, intracranial bleed, head injury or other neurologic disorder likely to affect ventilation\n* Coma from any cause, or decreased consciousness\n* Hypersensitivity to heparin or previous heparin induced thrombocytopenia\n* Recent (\\< 6 months) major chest abdominal trauma or surgery\n* Presence of septic shock\n* Presence of a significant pneumothorax or bronchopleural fistula\n* History of uncontrolled major psychiatric disorder\n* Pregnant women\n* Known to have AIDS or to have symptomatic HIV\n* Received chemotherapy or radiation within the previous 90 days\n* Received an organ transplant other than corneal transplants\n* Received or currently receiving immunosuppressive therapy, excluding
