Abstract
The timing of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation and its outcome in the management of respiratory and cardiac failure have received considerable attention, but very little attention has been given to mechanical ventilation during ECMO. Mechanical ventilation settings in non-ECMO studies have been shown to have an effect on survival and may also have contributed to a treatment effect in ECMO trials. Protective lung ventilation strategies established for non-ECMO-supported respiratory failure patients may not be optimal for more severe forms of respiratory failure requiring ECMO support. The influence of positive end-expiratory pressure on the reduction of the left ventricular compliance may be a matter of concern for patients receiving ECMO support for cardiac failure. The objectives of this review were to describe potential mechanisms for lung injury during ECMO for respiratory or cardiac failure, to assess the possible benefits from the use of ultra-protective lung ventilation strategies and to review published guidelines and expert opinions available on mechanical ventilation-specific management of patients requiring ECMO, including mode and ventilator settings. Articles were identified through a detailed search of PubMed, Ovid, Cochrane databases and Google Scholar. Additional references were retrieved from the selected studies. Growing evidence suggests that mechanical ventilation settings are important in ECMO patients to minimize further lung damage and improve outcomes. An ultra-protective ventilation strategy may be optimal for mechanical ventilation during ECMO for respiratory failure. The effects of airway pressure on right and left ventricular afterload should be considered during venoarterial ECMO support of cardiac failure. Future studies are needed to better understand the potential impact of invasive mechanical ventilation modes and settings on outcomes.

<abstract><p>The timing of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation and its outcome in the management of respiratory and cardiac failure have received considerable attention, but very little attention has been given to mechanical ventilation during ECMO. Mechanical ventilation settings in non-ECMO studies have been shown to have an effect on survival and may also have contributed to a treatment effect in ECMO trials. Protective lung ventilation strategies established for non-ECMO-supported respiratory failure patients may not be optimal for more severe forms of respiratory failure requiring ECMO support. The influence of positive end-expiratory pressure on the reduction of the left ventricular compliance may be a matter of concern for patients receiving ECMO support for cardiac failure. The objectives of this review were to describe potential mechanisms for lung injury during ECMO for respiratory or cardiac failure, to assess the possible benefits from the use of ultra-protective lung ventilation strategies and to review published guidelines and expert opinions available on mechanical ventilation-specific management of patients requiring ECMO, including mode and ventilator settings. Articles were identified through a detailed search of PubMed, Ovid, Cochrane databases and Google Scholar. Additional references were retrieved from the selected studies. Growing evidence suggests that mechanical ventilation settings are important in ECMO patients to minimize further lung damage and improve outcomes. An ultra-protective ventilation strategy may be optimal for mechanical ventilation during ECMO for respiratory failure. The effects of airway pressure on right and left ventricular afterload should be considered during venoarterial ECMO support of cardiac failure. Future studies are needed to better understand the potential impact of invasive mechanical ventilation modes and settings on outcomes.</p>

<sec sec-type="intro"><title>Introduction</title>
<p>Over the past decade, the use of two distinct modalities of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for respiratory and cardiac support in adults has increased. Venovenous (VV)-ECMO may be initiated as a treatment strategy for patients with severe acute respiratory failure, including adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B5">5</xref>
], as a salvage therapy for patients with profound gas-exchange abnormalities despite positive-pressure ventilation. Additionally, partial extracorporeal support systems have been suggested for less severe respiratory failure as an adjunct to invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) for patients who have excessively high inspiratory airway pressures or who are unable to tolerate volume-limited and pressure-limited strategies. These devices predominately remove carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>
) from the blood and provide limited oxygenation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B6">6</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B8">8</xref>
]. Such systems are often classified as extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO<sub>2</sub>
R) systems and cannot provide complete respiratory support. VV-ECMO and ECCO<sub>2</sub>
R may now be considered management options for chronic end-stage respiratory failure where MV is contraindicated or undesirable; for example, as a bridge to lung transplantation in patients with cystic fibrosis who need to perform airway clearance techniques for sputum retention [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B10">10</xref>
]. ECCO<sub>2</sub>
R has also been described for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with prolonged weaning of invasive MV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>
]. Venoarterial (VA)-ECMO is a rapidly deployable treatment option for temporary circulatory assistance in patients with cardiogenic shock or refractory cardiac arrest [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B12">12</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B14">14</xref>
] secondary to a large number of acute and chronic cardiac illnesses.</p>
<p>MV management during VV-ECMO and VA-ECMO has received scant attention to date despite high-level evidence to support low-tidal-volume ventilation strategies to improve survival [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B15">15</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B16">16</xref>
]. The design of randomized controlled trials of ECMO in ARDS did not use standardized protective ventilation in the interventional arm [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B8">8</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B17">17</xref>
] or in the control arm [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>
], which could have jeopardized the success of the ECMO treatment in these trials. MV settings may have important implications in both modes of ECMO (that is, VV-ECMO and VA-ECMO). Patients with the most severe forms of lung injury are likely to be particularly susceptible to ventilator-associated lung injury. Limiting stress and strain with a volume-limited and pressure-limited protective ventilation strategy beyond that recommended for patients with ARDS could provide additional benefit during ECMO support [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B18">18</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B19">19</xref>
]. For patients with severe cardiac failure supported with VA-ECMO, pulmonary artery blood flow may be severely reduced and the maintenance of normal alveolar ventilation might lead to severe over-ventilation of the lungs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B20">20</xref>
]. Positive airway pressure settings will also affect right and left ventricular load in both VV-ECMO and VA-ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B21">21</xref>
].</p>
<p>Brief guidelines for the use of ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
] and expert points of views [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B23">23</xref>
] have been published, mostly during the recent influenza A(H1N1) pandemic [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B24">24</xref>
]. These publications are based on clinician preference, experience of centers with high case volumes, previous randomized trials [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>
] and local resource availability.</p>
<p>While there are extensive reviews on ECMO management [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B23">23</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B25">25</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B29">29</xref>
], there is a significant knowledge gap in understanding the benefits and risks of MV during ECMO. Unlike previous reviews on ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B23">23</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B27">27</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B29">29</xref>
], this review will focus on MV during ECMO. The purpose is to highlight the interactions between MV, ECMO and the pathophysiology of severe acute respiratory and cardiac failure. A second purpose is to provide evidence of the risks associated with MV during ECMO. Additionally, this review will summarize current guidelines, describe new strategies advocated for MV, provide evidence-based criteria that can be used for MV during ECMO and discuss what future studies are needed to address the evidence gap in this area.</p>

<sec><title>Nonpulmonary gas exchange: how much gas exchange can extracorporeal membrane oxygenation provide?</title>
<p>The extent of nonpulmonary gas exchange required during ECMO is directly related to the limitation of pulmonary gas exchange. The amount of oxygen supplied to the patient by the ECMO circuit is limited by the maximal oxygen delivery of the membrane (that is, membrane outlet–inlet oxygen content). The current generation of ECMO membranes can deliver up to 450 ml oxygen/minute [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B30">30</xref>
]. Actual patient oxygen delivery from an ECMO circuit is affected by the rate of circuit blood flow, the hemoglobin concentration and the oxyhemoglobin saturation of the venous blood (partly reflecting the level of recirculation). Of note, with VV-ECMO the circuit blood flow is related to both the inflow cannula diameter and the cardiac output [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B31">31</xref>
]. The CO<sub>2</sub>
content in blood is higher than the oxygen content, and is rapidly diffusible. CO<sub>2</sub>
transfer provided by current membranes may exceed 450 ml/minute depending on the ratio of gas to blood flow in the membrane and the CO<sub>2</sub>
partial pressure. Higher sweep gas flow and higher CO<sub>2</sub>
partial pressure in the oxygenator blood result in greater CO<sub>2</sub>
clearance. CO<sub>2</sub>
removal is therefore easily controlled with sweep gas flow settings [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B32">32</xref>
].</p>

<sec><title>Minimizing ventilator-induced lung injury</title>
<p>MV can activate inflammation and worsen the pulmonary damage of the underlying disease, leading to ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B33">33</xref>
]. Three possible causal mechanisms of VILI may be modifiable with the use of ECMO.</p>
<p>First is the alveolar strain, which represents the amount of aerated lung receiving ventilation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B34">34</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B35">35</xref>
]. In 2000, the ARDS Network published a multicenter randomized clinical trial where a strategy aimed at maintaining plateau pressure ≤30 cmH<sub>2</sub>
O with an initial tidal volume of ≈ 6 ml/kg predicted body weight (PBW) was compared with traditional ventilation treatment that involved an initial tidal volume of ≈ 12 ml/kg PBW [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B15">15</xref>
]. The protective ventilation, which minimizes the alveolar strain physiological concept, was associated with a decreased mortality of 22%. Patients at many centers who have received ECMO for severe ARDS have a very low arterial partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen ratio (≈50 mmHg) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>
] and a very high acute injury score [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>
]. In addition, these patients have a very small area of normally aerated alveoli located in the nondependent lung, a large consolidated or nonaerated region located in the dependent lung along the vertical axis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B36">36</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B38">38</xref>
] and frequent infiltration of all of the four lung’s quadrants on chest radiographs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref>
]. As the aerated compartment receives the largest part of the tidal volume [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B37">37</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B39">39</xref>
], these severely unwell patients with a large amount of collapsed lung may be exposed to VILI despite low-tidal-volume ventilation strategies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B40">40</xref>
]. Limitation of the alveolar strain is a major concern of patients with ARDS receiving MV during ECMO.</p>
<p>A second mechanism of VILI is due to repeated intra-tidal alveolar opening and closing (atelectrauma), defined as the amount of collapsed lung tissue that is re-opened during inspiration and re-collapsed during expiration [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B41">41</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B43">43</xref>
]. The challenge is to find the right ventilator settings to avoid intra-tidal alveolar opening and closing while limiting the risk of alveolar overdistension or strain [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B44">44</xref>
]. Combining a low tidal volume with high levels of positive end-expiratory pressures (PEEP) appears to be important. Caironi and colleagues showed similar alveolar strain after application of 15 cmH<sub>2</sub>
O PEEP in two distinct groups of 34 ARDS/acute lung injury patients (that is, higher vs. lower percentage of potentially recruitable lung groups) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B41">41</xref>
], suggesting that the beneficial impact of reducing intra-tidal alveolar opening and closing by increasing PEEP prevailed over the effects of increasing alveolar strain. Of note, despite improving oxygenation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B45">45</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B46">46</xref>
] and reducing the duration of MV [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B46">46</xref>
], a strategy for setting PEEP aimed at increasing alveolar recruitment while limiting hyperinflation did not significantly reduce mortality in ARDS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B45">45</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B47">47</xref>
].</p>
<p>Finally, oxygen lung toxicity from a high fraction of inspired oxygen in lung areas with a low ventilation–perfusion ratio might alone cause reabsorption atelectasis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B48">48</xref>
-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B51">51</xref>
]. Such areas are frequent in ARDS, and Aboab and colleagues showed in mechanically ventilated patients with acute lung injury that the breathing of pure oxygen leads to derecruitment, which is prevented by high PEEP [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B52">52</xref>
]. The challenge of MV settings with ECMO, particularly when lung function is severely impaired, is to minimize these pitfalls.</p>
</sec>
</sec>
<sec><title>Physiological considerations and possible mechanisms for harm and benefit of mechanical ventilation during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation</title>
<p>Patients with cardiac failure receiving VA-ECMO often have abnormal lung function that may be associated with ARDS. Considerations from the previous section may also apply to this group. However, the major cardiovascular effect associated with PEEP is reduction in cardiac output. Although the effect of PEEP on cardiac output is complex, the decrease is caused predominantly by decreasing the right ventricular preload and direct heart–lung interaction [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B53">53</xref>
]. By increasing the intrathoracic pressure, PEEP can increase pulmonary vascular resistance, which may cause right ventricular overload and reduced left ventricular compliance. Patients who have received VA-ECMO with predominately right ventricular failure can be adversely affected by high PEEP [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B54">54</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B55">55</xref>
]. Conversely, patients with predominately left ventricular failure supported with VA-ECMO may develop pulmonary edema despite adequate systemic support and often benefit from the application of high PEEP [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B34">34</xref>
].</p>
<p>Additionally, VA-ECMO may dramatically reduce pulmonary blood flow as a result of pulmonary shunting. If normal lung ventilation is maintained in this setting, severe local alkalosis might result. To date, this potential deleterious effect has not been widely described and clinical consequences are still unknown. However, some authors have suggested that decreased lung perfusion with VA-ECMO may accelerate pulmonary vascular thrombosis in the presence of severe lung injury [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B17">17</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B20">20</xref>
].</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Evidence and current recommendations</title>
<p>To date, animal data, observational studies and previous randomized trials may give a physiologic rationale to promote ultra-protective ventilation during ECMO.</p>
<sec><title>Mechanical ventilation settings: tidal volume and plateau pressure limitation</title>
<p>The main objectives of MV during ECMO for patients with severe acute respiratory failure are summarized in Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>
. However, multiple approaches to ventilation could be acceptable [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B29">29</xref>
]. By directly removing CO<sub>2</sub>
from the blood, ECMO enables lung-protective ventilation. Without ECMO, difficulty maintaining adequate alveolar ventilation is one limitation to the use of a protective ventilation strategy – exposing patients to potential side effects of subsequent hypercapnia, such as intracranial pressure elevation, pulmonary hypertension, depressed myocardial contractility and a reduction in renal blood flow [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B56">56</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B57">57</xref>

</fig>
<p>Using tidal volume <4 ml/kg PBW is thus recommended with ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B29">29</xref>
] and is often referred to imprecisely as lung rest or ultra-protective ventilation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B7">7</xref>
]. The concept of ultra-protective MV was suggested and investigated in animal studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B58">58</xref>
]. Using a rat model of acid-induced lung injury, Frank and colleagues showed that a tidal volume reduction from 12 to 6 to 3 ml/kg, with the same level of PEEP (10 cmH<sub>2</sub>
O), decreased pulmonary edema and lung injury, and increased protection of the alveolar epithelium [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B58">58</xref>
]. In addition, <italic>post-hoc</italic>
analysis of the ARDS Network data in a multivariable logistic regression model showed that lower tidal volume assignment and lower plateau pressure quartile were significant predictors of lower mortality [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B59">59</xref>
]. Favorable outcome of patients with ARDS treated with a strong tidal volume reduction until 1.9 ml/kg PBW with ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B19">19</xref>
] and with ECCO<sub>2</sub>
R [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B18">18</xref>
] have been reported. Terragni and colleagues used a system that predominately removed CO<sub>2</sub>
to reduce tidal volume <6 ml/kg PBW and observed a reduction of pulmonary cytokine concentration [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B60">60</xref>
]. However, survival benefit from ultra-protective lung ventilation was not seen in a recent multicenter randomized controlled trial [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B6">6</xref>
]. Bein and colleagues compared a very low tidal volume ventilation strategy (≈ 3 ml/kg PBW) combined with ECCO<sub>2</sub>
R to lower tidal ventilation (≈ 6 ml/kg PBW) without the extracorporeal device in 79 patients with ARDS. The number of ventilator-free days at day 60 and the mortality rates were not significantly different between the two study groups. However, promising results were found in patients with severe hypoxemia with a lower number of ventilator-free days at 60 days in the control group [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B6">6</xref>
]. In addition, Pham and colleagues recently showed, in a cohort of 123 patients with influenza A(H1N1)-induced ARDS, that a higher plateau pressure on the first day of VV-ECMO for acute respiratory failure was significantly associated with ICU death (odds ratio = 1.33, 95% confidence interval = 1.14 to 1.59, <italic>P</italic>
<0.01) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>
]. It is worth noting that the ultra-protective ventilation strategy was associated with the use of high PEEP levels in all cases [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B6">6</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B18">18</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B60">60</xref>
].</p>
<p>Using a pressure control approach with tight limitation of the peak inspiratory pressure between 20 and 25 cmH<sub>2</sub>
O has been suggested to be beneficial [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>
]. Depending on the severity of the lung disease, ultra-protective ventilation with plateau pressure limitation may lead to apneic ventilation (that is, no tidal volume) for several days. This may be particularly evident with pediatric patients [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B61">61</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B62">62</xref>
], and in some cases the reduction of the tidal volume to achieve limited ventilation pressure strategy is considered so important that the result is insufficient ventilation to maintain adequate oxygen delivery. In this case, a third venous ECMO cannula to increase ECMO blood flow may be utilized rather than increasing the inspiratory pressure, which may negate the beneficial effect of the ECMO. Despite its feasibility reported on animal studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B63">63</xref>
], pediatric studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B64">64</xref>
] and in our daily adult practice, the long-term effect of apneic ventilation is unknown. A very low tidal volume results in dead space ventilation only. In our opinion, this must be combined with a high level of PEEP, to maintain convective ventilation for the elimination of alveolar nitrogen [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B63">63</xref>
] and avoid alveolar collapse.</p>
<p>Although there are no large randomized studies focused on MV settings during ECMO in severe acute respiratory failure, it is reasonable, at this time, to advise an ultra-protective ventilation strategy with ECMO, based on a tidal volume reduction (that is, <4 ml/kg PBW) and on a plateau pressure reduction (that is, ≤25 cmH<sub>2</sub>
O), provided lung recruitment with PEEP is sufficient.</p>
<p>For patients without ARDS treated by VA-ECMO, lung function is often abnormal. Cardiogenic pulmonary edema, postoperative lung damage and thoracic compliance reduction are frequently present after cardiac surgery, and these patients are at risk of developing ARDS. Targeting lower tidal volumes (6 to 8 ml/kg PBW) appears to decrease the incidence of adverse outcome, even without ARDS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B65">65</xref>
], and would appear to be reasonable in this population [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
], as would a reduction in the respiratory rate during periods of minimal pulmonary artery blood flow. In addition, CO<sub>2</sub>
removal by VA-ECMO might allow a better tolerance of low tidal volume with less discomfort and dyspnea, and therefore less sedation – but this is an area for further research.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Mechanical ventilation settings: positive end-expiratory pressure</title>
<p>It is important to be aware that, despite the use of ECMO, decreasing tidal volume <4 ml/kg PBW may increase atelectasis and result in severe ventilation/perfusion mismatch unless PEEP is appropriately increased [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B66">66</xref>
]. Higher PEEP levels are essential [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B18">18</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B19">19</xref>

] – probably higher than suggested by the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) guidelines, which suggest a modest PEEP of 10 cmH<sub>2</sub>
O [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
] – while taking into account the risk of alveolar overdistension and increased alveolar strain [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B44">44</xref>
]. In addition, higher PEEP levels, can also maintain convective ventilation for the elimination of alveolar nitrogen accumulated during apneic oxygenation with ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B63">63</xref>
].</p>
<p>High PEEP levels may have an adverse effect on hemodynamics when the patient is managed in the VV-ECMO mode by inhibiting venous return [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
]. Although heart function is partially or completely replaced by VA-ECMO, high PEEP levels might also exacerbate right ventricular dysfunction and delay heart recovery. Particular caution and frequent cardiac echography monitoring should thus be advised for patients with ARDS and moderate right failure treated with VV-ECMO.</p>

<sec><title>Mechanical ventilation settings: fraction of inspired oxygen, respiratory rate</title>
<p>To limit pulmonary oxygen toxicity [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B52">52</xref>
], the ventilator fraction of inspired oxygen should also be reduced to the minimal value to keep arterial saturation >85% [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B23">23</xref>
]. Settings for the respiratory rate are debated, with some authors suggesting that rapid respiratory rates may increase mechanical lung stress [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
]. Current expert opinions vary, and a broad range has been suggested from 4 to 30 cycles/minute (Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
). In our opinion, the respiratory rate must be set to maintain pH and arterial CO<sub>2</sub>
partial pressure within normal ranges. A first approach could thus be to tailor the respiratory rate to the tidal volume and ECMO gas flow settings.</p>

<sec><title>Mechanical ventilation settings: mode of mechanical ventilation</title>
<p>To date no study has compared different modes of MV during ECMO. The choice of mode used during ECMO must thus be guided by both physician usage pattern and local resource availability. However, an ultra-protective strategy should be advocated (Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
).</p>
<p>The assist-controlled mode in pressure or volume seems to be commonly used during the initial phase of ARDS with ECMO, when patients are often deeply sedated and paralyzed and when alterations of lung compliance are greatest. With the target settings discussed previously, the pressure-controlled mode appears to be advocated, and is probably the most popular mode in the initial phase of ARDS with ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
]. While minimizing the potential for VILI with ultra-protective ventilation, the pressure-controlled mode allows daily monitoring of the tidal volume increase as the patient’s condition improves. As the lung compliance improves, it is possible to see the gradual increase in tidal volume from very negligible tidal volume (50 ml) to 6 ml/kg PBW (inferior limit for ECMO weaning) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
]. However, while pressure control ventilation is advocated, some authors have recommended including spontaneous breathing to allow diaphragm contraction. Spontaneous breathing in any phase of the mechanical ventilator cycle is possible during airway pressure release ventilation, a ventilation mode that periodically switches between two levels of continuous positive airway pressure [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B67">67</xref>
]. Combined with spontaneous breathing, airway pressure release ventilation appeared to augment the distribution of ventilation to dependent lung regions [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B68">68</xref>
], to decrease the workload on the respiratory muscle [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B69">69</xref>
] and to increase systemic blood flow in patients with severe ARDS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B70">70</xref>
]. As a result, airway pressure release ventilation might be an alternative mode to conventional pressure-controlled MV in ARDS with ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B71">71</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B72">72</xref>
].</p>
<p>Prolonged controlled ventilation without diaphragmatic contraction may result in severe atrophy and increased duration of ventilatory support [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B73">73</xref>
]. The pressure-assisted mode with spontaneous diaphragm contraction should therefore be used as soon as possible. Recent case reports have noticed the successful combination of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist and ECMO in patients with severely impaired lung function in the recovery phase [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B74">74</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B75">75</xref>
]. The automated protective ventilation permitted with this closed-loop ventilation mode [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B76">76</xref>
] may improve patient–ventilator synchrony, particularly in patients with ARDS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B75">75</xref>
].</p>
<p>In the case of patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or chronic end-stage respiratory failure treated with VV-ECMO or ECCO<sub>2</sub>
R, the findings of recent pilot studies have suggested that the optimal management is to wean from MV as soon as possible once ECMO has been established [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B77">77</xref>
]. In this case, ECMO without invasive MV, named awake ECMO, seems feasible, is relevant and has been associated with good results [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B77">77</xref>
].</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Associated measures</title>
<p>To obtain high-flow ECMO sufficient to perform ultra-protective ventilation, ECMO cannulas with high diameter are essential [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B31">31</xref>
]. Similarly, diuresis to dry weight [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B78">78</xref>
] and restrictive transfusion strategies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B31">31</xref>
] should be attempted early in the patient’s management, despite volume expansion that may be needed at the initial phase of the disease. Every effort should then be made to achieve net negative fluid balance. In addition, tracheotomy is frequently done safely under ECMO in this population exposed to prolonged MV. Sedation and analgesia should be titrated as low as possible to conciliate protective ventilation with comfort and tolerance of the cannula.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Recommendations</title>
<p>Many retrospective studies of patients with ARDS mechanically ventilated during ECMO did not provide details of MV settings [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B2">2</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B79">79</xref>
]. Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
summarizes the views of experts in the field in the form of the ELSO guidelines [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
], MV network [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B24">24</xref>
] and protocols from previous [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>
] or ongoing [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B72">72</xref>
] prospective randomized trials. For brief MV management, ELSO recommends ‘reasonable initial ventilator settings during extracorporeal life support (ECLS) … with a respiratory frequency of 4 to 5 per minute, modest PEEP (e.g. 10 cm H<sub>2</sub>
O), and low inflation pressure (e.g. 10 cm H<sub>2</sub>
O above PEEP, or a peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) of 20 cm H<sub>2</sub>
O. Once patients are stabilized and sedation can be lightened, spontaneous ventilation with pressure support ventilation can be considered’ [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
].</p>
<p>Despite current use of heterogeneous modes of MV, an ultra-protective ventilation strategy for ECMO with acute respiratory failure is commonly suggested as best practice (Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
). To what extent we should reduce both the tidal volume and the plateau pressure to allow lung rest remains unknown and is an area for future research. Similarly, the impact of PEEP and tidal volume on the timing of recovery of heart function in patients supported with VA-ECMO is unclear and is another important area of future research.</p>
</sec>
</sec>
<sec><title>Evidence gap and future directions</title>
<p>Recent publications have suggested several directions forward.</p>
<sec><title>No future for invasive mechanical ventilation with ECMO?</title>
<p>In the future, will we still need invasive MV with ECMO at all? As described previously, invasive MV is a potential cause of VILI and ventilator-associated pneumonia, which can further enhance the initial lung damage. Numerous centers have reported the strategy of employing ECMO as a bridge to lung transplantation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B80">80</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B81">81</xref>
] without invasive ventilation.</p>
<p>A recent pilot study has suggested that ECMO might be used for hypercapnic respiratory failure in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients as an alternative to non-invasive ventilation or in the case of non-invasive ventilation failure [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>
]. In a proof-of-concept study, 26 patients awaiting lung transplantation who developed end-stage respiratory failure and were supported with ECMO while awake (that is, no invasive ventilation) were retrospectively compared with a historical control group [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref>
]. The control group was supported with invasive MV as a bridge to lung transplantation. Despite the same duration of assistance, the 6-month survival after transplantation was higher in the ECMO group. The main benefits of awake ECMO were avoiding the complications of prolonged intubation, MV and sedation, as well as maintaining active physical activity while receiving ECMO, which may have improved physical fitness prior to transplantation. The same strategy was also described as feasible and safe with VA-ECMO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B82">82</xref>
]. This is briefly suggested by the ELSO guidelines as: ‘… An alternative is to extubate the patient and allow spontaneous breathing with the patient awake’ [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>
].</p>
<p>Recent advances in ECMO technology and a better understanding of the respiratory drive, in particular the source of dyspnea and discomfort, might allow the use of ECMO as an alternative to invasive MV in selected patients with ARDS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B83">83</xref>
]. Hoeper and colleagues recently reported the feasibility of VV-ECMO in six awake, non-intubated, spontaneously breathing patients with ARDS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B84">84</xref>
]. Avoiding mechanical ventilation might be of particular interest in specific patient populations that are placed at high risk with invasive ventilation; for example, patients with immunosuppression or end-stage chronic lung disease [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref>
,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>
].</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Trials focus on mechanical ventilation strategies with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation</title>
<p>Description of actual MV management with ECMO worldwide is warranted to give the basis to design future interventional trials. For instance, evaluation of the impact of an ultra-protective lung ventilation strategy with ECMO for ARDS by a large international randomized trial is now needed.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Monitoring mechanical ventilation settings prior to and during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation</title>
<p>As blood gas is a mix up of oxygen delivered both from the ECMO and from the native lung, monitoring the native lung during ECMO is very scanty. However, simple beside tools are available. Daily plateau pressure and compliance monitoring is a first, but imperfect, way to monitor native lung function. In addition, if a pressure mode is used, the daily monitoring of the tidal volume obtained may be valuable information. Although there is no published evidence, continuous measurement of end-tidal CO<sub>2</sub>
is used by some teams to monitor native lung improvement during the ECMO course. Moreover, MV during ECMO may lead to overdistension and under-recruitment depending on the degree of heterogeneity of regional compliance [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B44">44</xref>
].</p>
<p>Assessment of regional lung mechanics is not easy with extremely severe ARDS prior to or during ECMO. Therefore, for technical and safety reasons, thoracic computed tomography could not be routinely recommended for these patients. Electrical impedance tomography could be considered as a MV monitoring tool prior and during ECMO for ARDS. Some authors have suggested that it could be a bedside tool to identify patients in whom lung protection and reversal of hypoxemia is not achievable with MV (that is, ECMO recipient), or to identify patients who would benefit from MV with lung recruitment maneuvers (that is, ECMO nonrecipient) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B85">85</xref>
]. Similarly, Grasso and colleagues suggested the use of transpulmonary pressure (assessed by esophageal balloon) as a bedside tool to assess physiological titration of PEEP [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B86">86</xref>
]. Indeed, the authors demonstrated that 50% of patients with influenza A(H1N1)-associated ARDS referred to their unit for ECMO did not receive ECMO, because the transpulmonary pressure was lower than airway pressure alone. This unexpected lower value, mainly due to low chest wall compliance, allowed a safe increase in the PEEP level, which in turn increased oxygenation and avoided the use of ECMO. This individually tailored approach could be the future direction of research to select the ‘best’ candidates for ECMO, if used as a rescue therapy for severe acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.</p>
</sec>
</sec>
<sec sec-type="conclusions"><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>Although the positive impact of a protective lung ventilation strategy on survival in ARDS has been clearly demonstrated, in patients receiving MV during ECMO there is limited evidence to guide practice. Based on actual and past randomized trials of ARDS with ECMO, an ultra-protective ventilation strategy that limits tidal volume to <4 ml/kg PBW, targets a very low plateau pressure (<25 cmH<sub>2</sub>
O) and is supported by increased alveolar recruitment with PEEP may be the best option for clinicians managing these critically ill patients. As the use of ECMO increases internationally, future studies are urgently required to determine the best practice of MV during ECMO and its impact on patient-centered outcomes.</p>
