Blood Purification Treatment of Schizophrenia

The International Journal of Artificial Organs, 1980
In order to gather information about the usefulness of blood purification methods as a treatment for chronic schizophrenic patients, «mini-questionnaires» were sent to all European centers working with this method. The questionnaires consisted of two parts, one asking the psychiatrist about the disease itself and the evaluation of treatment, the other ...

Blood purification therapy for sepsis

Transfusion and Apheresis Science, 2006
Accumulating evidences of underlining pathogenesis of sepsis have contributed to the therapeutic strategy for sepsis. Not only endotoxin and cytokine, but also signal transduction through Toll-like receptors could be a strategic target for the management of sepsis. Blood purification therapy including polymyxin B-immobilized hemoperfusion cartridge and

Blood Purification for Paediatric Patients

2019
Recent technical and experimental advances in extracorporeal blood purification therapy (eBPT) can be applied in paediatric patients, including neonates. However, there are several specific issues in performing eBPT in paediatric patients in regard to the safety and effectiveness of treatments. The aim of this review is to explore the technical aspects

Purification of cord blood lymphocytes

Journal of Immunological Methods, 1996
When cord blood is separated using standard methods based on Ficoll-Hypaque, the mononuclear fraction is contaminated with erythrocytes and also with nucleated cells that do not express the leucocyte marker CD45. The contamination with CD45-negative cells can exceed 50%, and will interfere with phenotypic, mRNA or functional analysis.

Blood Purification for Intoxication

2010
Blood purification is administered in cases of acute intoxication when the substance causing the intoxication is to be eliminated or when the substance leads to a case of organ dysfunction, such as in renal or hepatic failure. The causative substances cover a wide range, from medical drugs or agrichemicals to natural poisons (such as poisonous ...

Overview of blood purification in uremia

The International Journal of Artificial Organs, 1980
Today, management of irreversible renal failure is based primarily on maintenance hemodialysis and renal transplantation with a growing minority of patients treated by peritoneal dialysis. With regard to renal transplantation — the early promise of renal transplantation in the mid 1960's has given way to the realities of the late 1970's.

Dialysis membranes for blood purification

Frontiers of Medical and Biological Engineering, 2000
All of the artificial membranes in industrial use, such as a reverse-osmosis membrane, dialysis membrane, ultrafiltration membrane, microfiltration membrane and gas separation membrane, also have therapeutic applications. The most commonly used artificial organ is the artificial kidney, a machine that performs treatment known as hemodialysis.

Blood purification by haemoperfusion.

The International journal of artificial organs, 1980
Blood purification by haemoperfusion is considered, principally in terms of the European effort. The development of the different approaches which have emerged and the assessment of adsorbents and devices are described. The application of haemoperfusion is examined in the areas of acute poisoning, liver failure and uraemia.
