The basis of coronavirus disease is an infectious process, accompanied by a varying degree of activity of pathological processes. Based on the study of the pathological course of infection, modern approaches to the treatment and prevention of complications of coronavirus infection are presented. The main strategic pathogenetic direction in the creation of effective programs for the treatment of COVID-19, as well as the prevention of fatal complications, should be a set of measures enhancing permissive regulatory influences and events. Endothelium, being a source of inflammatory mediators and a transducer of their regulatory effects on the vascular tone, is involved in the development and alternation of vascular reactions, changing the volume of perfusion. The main mechanism for the development of endothelial dysfunction and damage is associated with an imbalance between the generation of reactive oxygen species and the power of the antioxidant defense system. Any measures to protect the endothelium, reducing the severity of microcirculatory disorders and hypoxia, will have a therapeutic and preventive effect on fatal complications. In this regard, in the treatment of COVID-19, the use of synthetic gas transport preparations based on perfluorocarbon nanodispersed emulsions with a clinical effect directed at once to several patho-genetic links underlying the progression of COVID-19 disease can be quite effective. The necessity of a comprehensive effect on pathogenesis using sanogenetic principles of treatment, allowing influencing the speed and time of onset of resolution of inflammation, which can reduce the number of complications and deaths of the disease, is substantiated.
