Abstract

• IL-6 might be a target of specific intervention in severe COVID-19. • Hemoperfusion and anti IL-6 drugs use have been reported in COVID-19 patients. • vv-ECMO support might worsen COVID-19-related cytokine release syndrome. • HA-380 hemoperfusion filter reduces IL-6 concentration. • Hemodynamic, renal and chest X ray improvement might be related to cytokines removal.
