Abstract

The article contains an overview of key points from reports on topical issues of therapy and rehabilitation of COVID-19 patients, presented by experts at one of the symposia of the XXXI National Congress on Respiratory Diseases (October 2021, Moscow). Particular attention is paid to modern data concerning the role of hyaluronic acid of COVID-19 pathogenesis, development and maintenance of the inflammatory process, formation of pathological respiratory discharge with specific physicochemical properties, as well as in postcovid residual changes in lung tissue. Examples of the use of bovhyaluronidase azoximer (Longidaza) medicine in the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with COVID-19 in real clinical practice are given.
