Abstract
Introduction: The Seraph® 100 Microbind® Affinity Filter is a biomimetic adsorbent device that can remove pathogens from the blood.
Case presentation: Here, we report the successful use of the Seraph® 100 to treat both a SARS-CoV-2 reinfection leading to severe COVID-19 pneumonia as well as subsequent secondary lung infections including Acinetobacter baumannii, Serratia marcescens, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa multidrug-resistant bacteria. To our knowledge, this 46-year-old black male is the first patient in which four treatments with this pathogen adsorber, one for a viral and three for different bacterial infections, have been successfully used.
Conclusion: The Seraph® 100 can be easily and successfully used in conjunction with standard (anti-infective) treatment.
期刊介绍：
This peer-reviewed online-only journal publishes original case reports covering the entire spectrum of nephrology and dialysis, including genetic susceptibility, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment or prevention, toxicities of therapy, critical care, supportive care, quality-of-life and survival issues. The journal will also accept case reports dealing with the use of novel technologies, both in the arena of diagnosis and treatment. Supplementary material is welcomed.
