Summary

Several studies have suggested a potential clinical benefit of controlling hyper inflammation triggered by SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19. Blood purification, the removal of excessive proinflammatory mediators may control disease progression and support clinical recovery.

For this purpose, COVID-19 patients might benefit from treatment with AN69ST hemofilter based extracorporeal blood purification.

DEVICE

Extracorporeal blood purification using the oXiris® (AN69ST) hemofilter

Admitted patients will receive at least 1 cycle of extracorporeal blood purification using the oXiris® (AN69ST) hemofilter (Baxter, IL, USA). The number of cycles of blood purification is determined based on multiple biochemical, immunological, coagulation parameters, radiological imaging and overall clinical condition. The patient is connected to the Prismaflex® oXiris® system via a double lumen catheter placed in the femoral vein or vena subclavia. Flow rates will be maintained as follow; effluent dose 35 mL/Kg/h, dialysate 14 - 16 mL/Kg/h, blood 150 mL/min, replacement 16 -18 mL/Kg/h; patient fluid removal is tailored to the individual's volume status, ≈ 100 - 250 mL/h. The oXiris® extracorporeal and organ support modality will be chosen according to the patient's kidney function; continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH), continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) or slow continuous ultrafiltration (SCUF).
