Since December 2019 we have been faced with a rapidly growing number of patients with COVID-19, which is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), COVID-19 is a respiratory illness. A person may have a dry cough, fever, muscle aches, and fatigue. Most common diagnosis for severe COVID-19 is severe pneumonia which may be life threatening . In most cases, antiviral, antimicrobial, and steroidal treatment is applied in these patients. However, some cases are resistant to treatment. Then the use of extracorporeal oxygenation membranes (ECMO) may be helpful.
