Chih-Heng ChangTaiwanSpeakerPrisMax and ECCO2R demoThe session provides a comprehensive, hands-on demonstration of the Baxter Prismaflex/PrisMax system integrated with extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO₂R) technology. Participants will gain practical experience with the operational principles of ECCO₂R, including membrane lung mechanics, CO₂ diffusion dynamics, and factors influencing clearance efficiency. Through guided instruction, learners will explore how blood flow, sweep gas settings, and membrane characteristics interact to optimize CO₂ removal in various clinical scenarios.
In addition to theoretical concepts, the workshop emphasizes real-world application. Participants will practice of the PrisMax platform. The session also highlights patient monitoring strategies, including assessment of ventilation status, acid–base balance, hemodynamics, and anticoagulation requirements.
By the end of the training, attendees will be familiar with the practical workflow of ECCO₂R therapy, understand its clinical indications such as hypercapnic respiratory failure or lung-protective ventilation strategies, and be able to integrate PrisMax system operation into routine critical care practice. This hands-on experience is designed to strengthen both technical proficiency and clinical decision-making for healthcare professionals involved in advanced respiratory support.
