The Experience of Surfactant Therapy in Severe COVID-19 Pneumonia: A Case Report

The COVID-19 pandemic has presented challenges to finding effective treatment for lung damage. Medical researchers from different countries recognize the deficiency of pulmonary surfactant (PS) as a significant cause of the alveolar collapse, followed by microatelectasis and severe disturbances in t...

Medical researchers from different countries recognize the deficiency of pulmonary surfactant (PS) as a significant cause of the alveolar collapse, followed by microatelectasis and severe disturbances in the ventilation-perfusion relationship. Due to the pathophysiological rationale, experimental confirmations, and accumulated clinical experience, the PS preparations can be used to treat patients with severe COVID-19.
