    In The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, Kollengode Ramanathan and colleagues1 provide excellent recommendations for the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for patients with respiratory failure from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) secondary to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The authors describe pragmatic approaches to the challenges of delivering ECMO to patients with COVID-19, including training health-care personnel, resolving equipment and facilities issues, implementing systems for infection control and personal protection, providing overall support for health-care staff, and mitigating ethical issues.

Show all authors Published:May 07, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S2665-9913(20)30127-2 Background Mortality of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and systemic inflammation is high. In areas of pandemic outbreak, the number of patients can exceed maximum capacity of intensive care units (ICUs), and, thus, these individuals often receive non-invasive ventilation outside of the ICU. Effective treatments for this population are needed urgently. Anakinra is a recombinant interleukin-1 receptor antagonist that might be beneficial in this patient population.

    • Baricitinib for COVID-19: a suitable treatment? – Authors' reply Peter J Richardson,Mario Corbellino,Justin Stebbing Published:April 03, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S1473-3099(20)30270-X We thank Ennio Favalli and colleagues for their Correspondence regarding our suggestion to use baricitinib for the treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections.1, 2 We also appreciate their recognition that inhibition of numb-associated kinase enzymes could indeed be beneficial in preventing virus infectivity via inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. We welcome the opportunity to more fully explain the possible use of baricitinib in the current pandemic. Indeed, we accept that using a JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor to treat a viral disease might appear illogical given that the antiviral effects of interferons are largely mediated by the JAK–STAT signalling pathway. However, the administration of pegylated-interferon has not had the beneficial antiviral effects originally hoped for,4 and clinical trials with interferons have yielded inconsistent results, with pathogenic effects of interferons being observed in some viral infections.
