The prevalence of COVID 19 encouraged physicians and researchers to study the pathology of the disease and changes in patients' immunological factors. What has been proven today is the occurrence of an inflammatory outbreak in the body of patients with this infection, which causes severe immunological reactions in them. Hemoperfusion, as an extracorporeal purification method, has the potential to act as an aid in modulating or controlling this inflammatory phase. Therefore, the present study evaluates the role of hemoperfusion in controlling inflammatory conditions in patients with COVID 19.
