Sumario:Coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia with respiratory failure refractory to maximum medical therapy has been successfully managed with venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. This report describes a process of using directed hypercapnia in 5 patients to wean them from prolonged extracorporeal support secondary to refractory hypercarbic respiratory failure.
