Die Folgen einer SARS-CoV-2("severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2")-Infektion können die Lebensqualität der Betroffenen durch Symptome wie chronische Fatigue, Belastungsintoleranz, Dyspnoe und kognitive Dysfunktion stark beeinträchtigen. Dabei stellt Komplexität des Post-COVID("coronavirus disease")-Syndroms eine große klinische Herausforderung dar, nicht nur bezüglich Eingrenzung pathophysiologischen Grundlagen, sondern auch im Hinblick auf Einleitung gezielter wirksamer Therapien. Aufgrund hohen Leidensdrucks werden in Ermangelung therapeutischer Alternativen verschiedene Verfahren Plasmapherese, Lipoproteinapherese Immunadsorption eingesetzt, um Fatigue Belastungsintoleranz zu lindern. Wirksamkeit dieser ist jedoch beim Post-COVID-Syndrom noch ausreichend untersucht. derzeit laufenden randomisierten, placebokontrollierten Studien zielen darauf ab, Wirkung von Immunadsorptionsbehandlungen andere Parameter untersuchen sowie Marker für das Ansprechen Behandlung identifizieren.
