Artificial liver support systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2020
AbstractArtificial liver systems are used to bridge between transplantation or to allow a patient's liver to recover. They are used in patients with acute liver failure (ALF) and acute‐on‐chronic liver failure. There are five artificial systems currently in use: molecular adsorbent recirculating system (MARS), single‐pass albumin dialysis (SPAD ...
