Abstract

 The new corona virus pneumonia caused by COVID-19 having begun in China, has now reached almost all countries of the world, affecting more than 500,000 people, of which more than 25,000 people have died. Unfortunately, specific measures for both preventing and treating this infection, which has pandemic status, are still lacking, which makes this problem very urgent. In severe pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) develops - toxic pulmonary edema with severe and difficult to correct respiratory failure, which requires an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Since endotoxemia is the basis for ARDS development, extracorporeal detoxification methods should play a leading role in the treatment of this complication. Moreover, with help of hemosorption, not only detoxification is achieved, but also decontamination (delay and removal of pathogens), and with plasma exchange, the body's immune defense system is restored.
