To evaluate and compare the effect of immunoadsorption effect of A-V ECMO on course of sepsis weaning from inotropes, weaning from the ventilator, duration of ICU stays and effect on mortality rate in patients with septic shock and respiratory failure due to ARDS followed severe lung contusion.
100 patients with respiratory failure without improvement after 10 days ventilation due to development of VAP with ARDS, had >2 SOFA score and >6 CPIS score included in two groups 50 patients in each. Only patients of group B put on A-V ECMO while patients of group A continue on traditional way of management. Improvement of ARDS &VAP, weaning from ventilation, duration of ICU stays, improvement of one/all parameters of both SOFA and CPIS scores, morbidity and mortality recorded and compared within 14 days.

100 patients from those who showed no improvement after 10 days ventilation and still had respiratory failure and in need of high ventilatory parameters (as mentioned before), fulfilled > 2 parameters on SOFA score as illustrated in table (2), > 6 on CPIS score as illustrated in table (3) and developed circulatory failure (septic shock) with nor-adrenaline infusion and only on high dose of nor-adrenaline included in our study (>5microgram/kg/minute intravenous infusion as circulatory support). Since the parameters of those 100 patients selected are considered indication for arteriovenous extracorporeal membranous (A-V ECMO), so patients randomly allocated in two groups 50 patients in each. Randomization sequence was created using Excel 2007 (Microsoft, Redmond, WA, USA) with a 1:1 allocation using random block sizes of 2 and 4 by an independent doctor. In this way, sequence generation and type of randomization can be expressed at the same time
